Are foxes okay with dogs?

Question

I was gettting to talk my dog a cocker spaniel out for his daily night walk, when my sister called me and said their was a fox out, and not to talk the dog out since foxs arent freindly to dogs, is that true?

Answer 1

Foxes are wildlife, and wildlife is unpredictable.

MOST foxes would rather flee than fight, though.

Answer 2

I once adopted a silver fox-it did not like cats or dogs-had to give back to breeder.Would try to choke itself on rope rather than deal with other animals.

Answer 3

You have to remember that dogs are incredibly protective of their owners....

Foxes, wolves, raccoons, etc... are all wildlife... while foxes tend to usually run away, a dog could still get aggravated enough to chase and you will never know with wildlife...

Better to avoid the woods late nights anyway... dogs are not safe from mosquitoes and wasps as is!

Good luck

Answer 4

The fox will just run away when it sees you and your dog.

Foxes are more scared of you, than you are of them ;)

Answer 5

if the fox sees u or ur dog its going to run for its life  

Answer 6

Foxes only come into the city when they have rabies. Otherwise they stay in the woods/country where their food ( rabbits and mice) is.

If you see it , call Animal Control or the police.
