Do you recall Juniper, the well-known pet fox, confusing a bed for snow? It turns out that she grew close to Moose, a dog who was also rescued at an early age. Since the first day Juniper was brought home, Moose, an Australian Shepherd mix, has served as Juniper’s protector. They share meals and beds, and when Juniper is with Moose, she behaves like a young girl who has a crush.

According to her mother, Jessika, Juniper spends the entire day attempting to obtain as much of Moose’s attention as she can. “When Juniper was just five weeks old, I brought her home. She rushed up to him weeping and wagging her tail, but Moose had grown up around all kinds of animals, so they hit it up right away.

“Foxes butt objects they desire to own or believe to be theirs. Every day, moose is sat on. I frequently enter the room to see Juniper sitting in this head grinning while Moose is lying down with such a dejected expression on his face.

Even though Juniper and the fox have a bond that is out of a fairy tale, Juniper’s mother cautions on Instagram that owning a fox is different from owning a dog or a cat: “Foxes smell. Bad. Their feces and urine have an ammonia-skunk mixture scent. A fox cannot be made to “de-scent.” Foxes are opportunistic wreckers who will damage items in your home. Taurine is also necessary for them to avoid death, blindness, and seizure disorders. Before you even attempt to try and get a fox as a pet, read this!
