In genus Canis (Dogs, wolves, jackals, and coyotes) the number of chromosomes is 78, no barrier to interbreeding exists in terms of chromosome segregation.There are some physical barriers due to size and behavior, which help maintain the separation of species in the wild. Not so with Canis vs. Vulpes. The question is not really whether species do interbreed, but whether they can interbreed under any conditions. Foxes, are out at ~8% sequence divergence, and only have 34 chromosomes, so a dog-fox hybrid probably is not viable.
Yes.
Answer:
The dog/fox hybrid is a topic of much speculation. Many claim to have seen one, had an uncle that owned one etc. but no scientific verification exists. The claim usually states that a female terrier/fox hybrid was produced, and later euthanized (killed). The supposed hybrids (known as a dox) are thought to be natural variations in the domestic dog (the variability of dogs in appearance makes it impossible to determine whether an animal is hybrid based on looks).
Ah, the classic question. Technically, they could breed (as in participate in breeding and create a tie), but they could not produce any 'babies' because dogs and foxes have a different number of chromosomes.
I love this question because people always seem to think that foxes and dogs can breed! They, as stated above, cannot produce offspring due to differences in the number of chromosomes each animal has.
highly unlikely, but not impossible.
It's not possible. There's a big difference in number of chromosomes (dogs--78, foxes--38). Small differences can still allow for interbreeding--like horses and zebras--but not this big of a difference.
Of course, there are many claims of a "dox", but none that are outside of the natural variation of a dog. I.e, it has fox-like attributes, but nothing that will definitely identify it as having a fox for a parent.
never. They will fight until one of them will die
No, their genetic make-up is too distant. If they could for some reason produce young, they would be sterile, or, unable to reproduce; like a mule.
Technically, canids can hybridize. But, foxes are much smaller than wolves, and most likely would be killed by their larger cousins.
No, they are too different genetically to interbreed.
No, they are genetically too different to successfully mate.
No, it is genetically impossible for a dog to mate with a fox.
No, both cats and dogs are too genetically different to mate with a fox.
A toy fox terrier reaches maturity at 9months to 1 year bu t a female dog (bitch) could be in her first heat (when you can mate) when she is 18 months old toy fox terrier goes into this 28 days to 6month period twice a year. You need two find a good stud dog to breed your female stud dog is a male dog to breed with a female. i personal prefer to spay or nurture your amery toy (toy fox terrier). And don't breed for fun we don't want to increase the unwanted dog population.
No.
No. Because a Fox is not a Dog. You may be able to use the fox as a guide animal, but a fox is not a dog.
Any dog can mate with another breed of dog.
yes it does
Yes, you can give a fox dog food.
No, a fox is a fox and is not part dog. It is related to the dog as are wolves, coyotes, dingoes, etc.
I personally think that 5 is a good age to mate your dog.
Please give more detail to your question. What do you mean by when a dog fights over mate. However a dog will fight over another dog until one dog is hurt or the mate chooses.
No but it can kill a fox
No. Sorry. The Red fox (Vulpes Vulpes) has 38 Chromosomes and the Gray Fox (Urcyion) has 66 chromosomes. They cant mate anymore than a dog and a fox (any kind of fox) can. The red fox is an invasive species and is taking over the grey foxes range all over North America. If they could interbreed, there would be hybrids all over.
