Can foxes breed with dogs?
There are some stories of fox and dog hybrids in the past but stories they only are and there is no evidence of such an outcome. Foxes and dogs have been known to show interest in each other when in breeding condition but nothing more as far as I know. Whelping bitches have reared newly born cubs many times and foxes share a lot of similar characteristics with dogs and other canids but not enough for them to be biologically compatible to produce offspring. Red foxes can mate and produce offspring with their close cousins, arctic foxes, but these are all said to be infertile.
