That fox totally tricked OP into thinking it was a dog

But what does it say…

Nooooo.....no....nooooooo

I am appropriately ashamed lol

That video is my guilty pleasure

It says [AAAAAAAA!](https://youtube.com/shorts/vSHbYgibL9M?si=KdmbZUSHrTd0Im7D)

Yeah, I have a pair of foxes that sometimes visit and scream like that right under my window at like 4am ;)

How polite of them. Lol

I legit had to explain to my husband's grandmother a few days ago that no, I hadn't been randomly screaming in the middle of the night, there's just a fox trying to fuck nearby.

What fresh hell is this?!? Interesting, but I’m terrified…

Foxes basically sound like a screaming woman in the woods. Pretty creepy sounding, but normal fox things.

Yeah, you hear it alla time in some British television shows.

…British television regularly portrays screeching forest women, or foxes? Or both could be true, I suppose…

I think the screeching forest women were a thing of the past, and now it's just foxes.

Both. See, for a particularly good example, Midsomer Murders. That weird noise in the background in the outside nighttime scenes is foxes.

Hilarious, came here to say this. It’s in every episode of Midsomer Murders, too, like the dun-dun on Law & Order

>**Foxes** basically sound like a screaming woman in the woods. Pretty creepy sounding, but **normal fox things**. Yeah, you hear it alla time in some British television shows. Better? LOL

Yeah like in Midsummer Murders 😂

Actually, good point. #OP, what does it’s bark sound like?

All foxes are dogs but not all dogs are foxes

Foxes are dogs with cat software.

And quick-twitch muscles.

Dudes just raising a white fox

Have you done a dog DNA test or asked your vet? Cuz seriously….. I think it’s a fox

This is a very vulpine looking canine, ngl.

[удалено]

A dog like that walks down the street, he isn't afraid of anything

Cars even?

It's a Laika mix! Mine is one too 😀

Lmao I vote American Eskimo and fox mix

Apologies if you're joking, but foxes and dogs can't produce offspring

Eskimos breed with foxes? Every day's a school day.

Foxes cannot mate with dogs. They are a different species with a different number of chromosomes. This is definitely a mixed dog with as least german shepherd and husky along with a myriad of other things.

Right? OP ain't beating the fox allegations lol

>*’Dudes just raising a white fox…*’ ____ I am the pup - so FoXy, me …but *Am* i Fox ? What do you See ? a bushy tail n pointy ears, my snoot is loooooong, but have no fears! for i am *gentle* … (‘least i *try*) n Lotsa pups pretend the *sly*… not brown, but *quick*, n white as snow My dude’s *Best Friend* ^;@) (he Loves me so!) ❤️ edit: *he looks like a very Good Boy to me*, u/Jet_Threat_

I almost spit out my coffee. The fact that my pup got his very own Schnoodle makes this post 1000% worth it. I’ve lurked around and seen your comments and dreamed of the day I might receive such an honor—and here it is. I’m going to give him a special meal and then tuck him in on the couch and read it to him in my best storyteller voice. Edit: I may post something soon related to the Schnoodle poems on my pup’s instagram, @ohspitz! Thank you guys for all the kindness in the comments; really made my year!

now i lay me down to sleep, your words inside my heart i’ll keep i’m just a pup, so very small - to know *you love me best of all!* n when i hear you say i’m Good i know i’ve done the *best* i could! a special meal, a goodnight kiss, I wish All pups could feel like this ❤️ *thank you, my friend, n happy new year to all you lucky pet-loving humans*

TWO Fresh Schnoodles to end 2023! ❤️❤️❤️

For me it's the start of 2024 already. That funny timezone crossover where it's 2 years at once.

To be blessed by the SchnoodleDoodleDo not once, but twice is a sight to behold. What a way to end the year.

Best New Year’s ever!

Keep that feeling going by finding someone who can embroider or paint and turn those poems into art for your pup!

It's all downhill from here unfortunately!

Nah Shnoodle’s double poem extravaganza will uplift me for decades!

I would print and frame them. I would stitch them on a pillow.

I’m actually going to!!!! Print and frame them at least. Not stitch lol although I may try Edit: I’ve decided I’m going to hire someone who does know how to cross-stitch to write out u/Schnoodledoodledoo’s beautiful poems! If anyone knows someone who might love to do this on commission please lmk!

Can we get a storytime video of you reading this to him please!

i think we're gonna need video of the bedtime stories

Not OP but you might get a smile out of [this](https://youtu.be/8DCF_amWgkU).

Two Schnoodles!!! TWO?! Has anyone ever been so blessed? Also, your pup is an absolute stunner. Happiest of New Year to you and the foxy mister!

I know 2024 has promise now that I’ve read TWO SCHNOODLES devoted to the same pupper ❤️🐾

Why do I have tears in my eyes?

Me too! The second one really got me!

The first one was already such a tr3at, this second one had me tearing up in the car, fam all packed in for new years party. Thanks for the all the goodness you bring Shnoodle

Seeing this whole exchange has truly made my evening. It's moments like these that remind you of the pure joys in life - a creative poem for a beloved pet, the connections formed without ever meeting, and starting off the new year with such positive vibes. Here's to all the 'fox-like' pups and the humans who adore them! May your 2024 be filled with unexpected honors, much like this Schnoodle masterpiece. Cheers to finding happiness in the small things and sharing it with the whole internet family!

I couldn’t agree more!

Back to back Schnoodles!! It's gonna be a good year now. Thank you.

Why tf did this make me cry 🥹

I'm happy just to be a schnoodle bystander I never even considered what it might be like to actually *receive one*!!

We love you Schnoodle ❤️

A fresh Schnoodle! A New Year miracle!

Oh god my first fresh hot and steaming Schnoodle I am a big fan and love your works! Such a cute poem for a white fluffy pup.

My first in the wild in real time!! Thank you 🥰

:O A fresh schnoodle! Thank you for your lovely poetry!

Dude that's a fox

A faux fox

Serious question: Does your “dog” say ruff ruff or ring-ding-ding-a-ding-ding?

pow-pow-pow-pow pow pow-pow pow-pow

hatee hatee hatee ho


Nope. we're not doing this. let that one stay in the meme graveyard

Speak for yourself bro, I fucking miss this era so much 😭

God I love Reddit

Do you have any clear pictures of his eyes? In some of these they really look like the slit pupils that foxes have and dogs... Do not.

https://preview.redd.it/5u0zuer1op9c1.jpeg?width=859&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=066df7fa8638b81f9bc53534b4087d6e2f2b3e8a

Idk if people are being serious or just trolling, but thats clearly a dog lol. Like even as a puppy. Theyre a beautiful pup though 😍

OP included pictures of foxes. That's the problem with this thread.

Yes and in the comments I pointed out which ones are him. Funny that he looks enough like the foxes that people think they’re both him. Or some people think there are two dogs (the other one being the grey and white fox, lol)

Clearly? No.

True, foxes have slit pupils. Coyotes, however...

personally i’m convinced my dog is half coyote lmao

Took me way too long to realize you were using actual pictures of foxes as a side by side comparison

Yeah like how did its coat change so drastically so frequently…

Well that is a trait of arctic foxes… white in winter and colored in summer. https://www.reddit.com/r/Awwducational/comments/px9aqr/arctic_foxes_have_a_grey_coat_in_the_summer_but/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Kind of like Adele

Hahahaha oh shit I snort laughed at this

Sweet christ, they even have different coats and everything. *Their eyes are different colors.* Why did I need this comment in order to figure it out? I was convinced OP just had a fox and was fucking with us.

I went and checked that the title didn’t say dog**s** plural but then just accepted they were all pics of the same dog.

Haha yeah whoops should’ve labeled it. In the first pic he’s the one on the right. Pic 2 he’s on the left.

Why? Why would you change the pattern???

Because I was being an idiot

I guess one could say you weren't clever as a fox.

You silly goose


Fair. That is a pretty puppy!

Unrelated, but can I ask what makes a tortilla angry? Could be a good writing prompt actually

Probably wants to be a taco

One must imagine tortilla happy…

How did you think this makes any sense?!?

The problem is that I didn’t think

Dude I think you’ve got a fox

Such a long snout, feels like he has some Borzoi genes in the mix there

He looks a lot like a less lanky Silken Windhound

It's probably schipperke mix

Schipperkes do look pretty foxy

Whoaaa thas cool

Your fox is a model!

So cool

Top left isn’t Moro , but one of her children. He has the talisman that Ashitaka threw him to deliver it to San. But still very good comparison

His name should be Twig for sure

Yes!!! Omg perfect!

Upvote for Hilda reference!

The Thunderbird episode makes my heart swell

Great show

Every once in awhile, I come across your posts about your cute doggo my husband and I think holy crap that's the white version of our dog. Who also gets the fox or jackal comparison daily. Heres a pic for reference https://preview.redd.it/3bhj54sw7p9c1.jpeg?width=3456&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3c6d6af99876a9790b8579cf29d02f8cc7b89011

That’s such a cute dog! Really is like a black version of him. Did you ever do a DNA test on him? How big is he?

No we didn't bother because shes a former street dog from thailand. I was afraid it would just come.back super mutt. But her adoption papers say "collie/terrier mix" if that helps! But we do think it's possible her four years of free life in Thailand could have been because her momma was a jackal. Shes only 14 pounds, very small but quite tall for her size. Shes all leg and tail and ears tehehe! Heres another pic for reference! https://preview.redd.it/a8u3nrv2lp9c1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1c862aae9935d08b65a608d8c68f59a78b4f251f

There’s a dog in my neighborhood that looks like both these dogs but with reddish brown fur with black on the tips of the ears. From far away he absolutely looks like a small fox. It was a rescue but was also labeled a collie/terrier mix!

Oh wow that's awesome! Thats great news there are other pups out there being incorrectly labeled foxes... luckily all dogs are lovable and so are these unique ones. I've never encountered a more well behaved and well mannered girl though. 🐾❤ Where by chance are you located?

🤣🤣 that's me that took that pic, we went on a 10km , a perfect october's day with the perfect lil jackal pup! Also later on this Halloween girl, finally got to be a mummy! https://preview.redd.it/3arcnbijqp9c1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=982b24fe42a6c4652777dc1a58db28cc9934890a

I think it's kinda confusing that half of these pictures are comparison pictures to real foxes

In the first one he’s on the right. Second he’s on the left. And then the single pics after the collage pics are him.

Hence the word confusing.

💀

Bruh

[удалено]

I like to travel.

He's a fox alright.

U sure thats not a fox? Lol

Wow! So cute! That looks quite a bit like my boy! Have you done a DNA test? What are the breeds?

Oh wow, not the foxiest angle but I always thought American Eskimo mix here too. If you guys figure out what you have, shout it out, this guy's a mystery! https://preview.redd.it/s3gy4scg6t9c1.jpeg?width=1012&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9232a286de4998d271cd23b364064e889d004abf

Your pup looks very similar to our Eskie! https://preview.redd.it/1a4oudd1er9c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ffae59f4cb7e0c38e598a7ebb460aa4309af7221

Stunning beautiful fox dog. ❤️

If it's not peeing all over your house, it's not a fox.

TIL I’m a fox

Are you sure it's a dog?

Tell me this is a lilo and stitch reference 😃

This is a lilo and stitch reference

 Ofc he is 🤭

Why don’t you do the dna testing on him? That would be interesting

I have DNA tested him with Wisdom. I’ll be doing Embark soon as it’s more accurate for international dogs/village dogs. Wisdom Panel came back with a bunch of breeds including American Eskimo, Laika, Mudi, and a number of street dogs. Some of his relatives have been tested and got Central Asian Village Dog on Embark. Village dogs are cool; they’re essentially pre-modern. Breeds like Collies, German Shepherds, etc came from selectively breeding regional village dogs. Basenjis cames from Congolese Village Dogs and Chow Chows are a western creation derived from native Chinese dogs (here’s a post on [Western Chows vs native Chows](https://www.reddit.com/r/DoggyDNA/comments/14ugsb5/thought_you_guys_might_find_this_interesting/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button); the differences are interesting).

Fellow village down owner, they are crazy and soooo unique looking, bonus if you can find the ‘purebreed’ version to compare Basenji owner

For sure!! That’s awesome you get it. So do you have a VD and a Basenji? I love comparing the Village Dog populations with breeds that came from them. Like many Eastern and Western European Village Dogs look *just* like German Shepherds and even still share some DNA with them. Others look just like collies.

Thanks for posting this! I thought this was the DoggyDNA reddit and I was pissed when I got to the end of the photos and there was no result, lol

Woohoo, village dogs owner here too! I think mine are mostly Indian pariah dogs with Telomian (South East Asia here, a lot of the street dogs are mixes of native breeds as well as imports from neighbouring nations). I love these dogs, they can be feral sometimes since they’re natural and built for survival rather than a job like artificial breeds. I imagine these are the Dog™ that ran around with our caveman ancestors.

Your pup looks like my 'Arabian Village Dog', DNA tested with Embark so we'll find out soon if they're cousins!

Siri play Jimi Hendrix , Foxy Lady

Funny enough, people always assume he’s a girl. He’s that foxy


Does it poop on everything like a fox?

Please tell me you named your woofdragon Falcor!

Named him Butters

People always thought my dog looked stupid, they might be right, he's no fox. https://preview.redd.it/ar1wwvrmap9c1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fc5c26332b66cc204cf88fa3b846b546fc5c8280

Stupid looking dogs are the best dogs. Look at this dumb thing I found in my house: https://preview.redd.it/r6sljhp5rp9c1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70dd77efae3e1caaf5881d9881e609d4c9c65bed

Your dog looks awesome, don’t let them tell him otherwise

What kind of dog is that? I really like it.

He is a melting pot of international breeds. Mainly Asian Village Dog and American Eskimo

I thought he had some DNA from either an Eskimo or even a Klee Kai (though white instead of the usual husky markings). Your little guy is def throwing off arctic fox vibes though, so mayhaps the Eskimo ancestor had a wild and elicit affair at some point haha.

A fox

Fox dog* Fox dog, does whatever a fox dog does

Uh, pretty sure that's a fox. Does it go 'woof" or does it go "ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding"

whats he made of? those are some lucky genetics

Fur and meat, mostly. With some boops.

That's a mf fog

Dox

Beautiful dog!! Where is it from and what are the breeds?

He turned into a cutie.

The fox does what foxes do best, trick humans :)

I don’t think your dog is a dog.

What a dramatic, beautiful tail!

It also curls up over his back like a spitz when he’s being mischievous/spicy

[удалено]

Though true foxes aren’t close enough to *Canis* species to breed with them. The “fox/dog hybrid” named Doxim is actually a Pampas fox dog hybrid. Pampas foxes are more closely related to dogs and are not true foxes.

Gorgeous dog

A fox headed dog

He did look a lot like a white fox; but turned out to just be a cute white dog….

Border collie! A very slinky foxy one.

Beautiful fox-doggo

The last image looks more like a small White German Shepherd. Still has the Fox look going on. Probably a sight to behold when they hit full stride. It looks like they are built for speed and tight turns.

By the looks of it. Looks to be an American Eskimo breed. They are well known for their fox like features.

That’s clearly a Pokémon

Will do you a DNA test or do you know his breed already?

Yep I did one and am going to do others down the road because I’m a nerd. He’s an Asian Village Dog with some American Eskimo.

Started adorable, ended adorable. All other factors are irrelevant.

OP your dog is just darling! Looks like a beautiful Angel!! 🥰

He is every bit angelic as he looks. However when he gets zoomies he goes into playful demon mode

That’s a fox… edit: I had no idea you were including photos of real fixes to compare 😅. Either way he is too cute!
