Fox Is Positively Giddy When Her Favorite Dog Comes Out to Play
Is there anything like seeing two animals getting along? Especially if they are so different — like a fox named Juniper and a dog named Moose. These two are the best of buddies, as can be seen in a video of Juniper getting a case of the zoomies after seeing Moose for the first time in a few days.
The clip is positively adorable. Who knew that a fox could love a dog so much?
In fact, if you were to ask her owner @juniperfoxx she'd definitely use the word "love." As in, Juniper is definitely in love with Moose! In the clip their mama shared online, the fox could barely contain her excitement when Moose showed up on the back deck. She was moving so fast when she saw him, she even ran under the deck and stared up at Moose. It was like she was shy around the object of her affection.

Their mama explained that Moose had been gone for a few days because he was sick. And clearly Juniper noticed.
"Even after nine years together she still lights up every time she sees him," the caption reads.
Moose was not exactly feeling the love, but the comments section certainly was. "This is Moose. He enjoys his personal space. This is Juniper. She also enjoys Moose’s personal space," joked one person. "She's his biggest fan lol," another commenter pointed out. "Foxes will never not be the most goofy energied creatures on earth lol," teased one woman. "Bro just woke up for a nap and he's like 'what’s this hollering so early in the day,'" chimed in someone else.
Foxes Are Affectionate
It goes without saying that Juniper is a lovebug. She's way more affectionate than one might imagine for a fox, but some breeds of foxes are surprisingly loving animals. Don't be mistaken, there are some breeds that are wary of humans and won't come near us. But others are amiable and comfortable with people.
Red Foxes in particular have an almost pet-like quality. They aren't quite dogs, nor are they cats. But they can bond with one or two people and show them tons of love and affection. That doesn't mean that all Red Foxes should be raised as pets — especially if you find one in the wild. But it's more to say that it is possible to have a connection with these guys. And if that's the case, it certainly stands to reason that they could bond with another species — like a very grumpy dog.
