I don't like foxes
Five years ago, I would've said that was awesome. The Internet ruined foxes for me, tbh.

To say they were our best buddies since the dawn of time is pretty dumb.

Dogs came to be through a long ass time of breeding desirable traits in behavior/appearance/ect. from wolves. I really don't see the problem with that. However, people need to understand that training and domestication is different. A fox from the wild can be trained to behave, but they still have gene make up that goes against that, so the thing snapping one day is always plausible. If we really want to domesticate the species, it needs to handled by breeders who know how to breed desired traits.
Dogs were domesticated so easily because they naturally aligned to pack mentality and humans tended to fill out whatever the wolves lacked, like opposable thumbs and being sapient. Foxes aren't very social creatures in the first place iirc, and wolves were domesticated over hundreds of years anyway. If it happens successfully, it'll be a long time until that day arrives.
Furries should be purged.
