After Raising This ‘Puppy’ For A Year, Woman Discovers She’s Living With A White Fox

When Wang first encountered what she believed to be an endearing white puppy, she felt it would be a perfect addition to her home. Driven by a common impulse, she welcomed the creature into her life with open arms, offering it warmth and affection.

However, more than a year had passed before Wang realized the truth about her “puppy.” It wasn’t a domestic pet at all, but rather a wild animal. What could it be?


Faced with a dilemma, Wang had to choose between releasing the animal she had nurtured for over a year or continuing to keep it in a domestic setting. Opting to keep it might extend their bond, yet it could also deprive the animal of its natural habitat and the opportunity to thrive in the wild.


“The fur became denser as it reached three months old,” Wang shared with American Web Media. “Its snout elongated, and its tail extended beyond that of a typical dog. My pet seemed to intimidate other dogs, prompting me to leash it during walks.”


As the creature began to display aversion to dog food and others started to express apprehension, Wang realized the need for professional guidance. She took her animal companion to a zoo, where experts unveiled the truth.

Wang had inadvertently become the caretaker of a fox!


Although initially perplexed, Wang came to understand how the confusion arose. It’s not rare in Asia for foxes to be deceitfully sold as purebred dogs by dishonest sellers, such as the Japanese Spitz, attracting high prices.


After much contemplation regarding the animal’s welfare, Wang resolved that if its best life couldn’t be with her, she wouldn’t confine it to her home.

She entrusted the fox to the zoo’s care, ensuring it would receive proper nourishment and care. There, Wang might even have the chance to visit occasionally.

What would you do if you were in Wang’s position?
