"Ooh dear Tetanus injection if it drew blood .. i had one a couple of years ago , so should be ok x"
Best get it checked out...my tetanus is up to date but when my cat bit me (quite badly) I was given a booster at the hospital anyway. Animal bites get infected very easily due to the bacteria on their teeth |

Think the last reported case of a fox carrying potentially dangerous deseases was decades ago . But a fox will eat anything dead or alive so ye i would also be getting checked out |

not likely to go for anything smaller than it tbh . A fox knows the food chain pretty well .. A badger on the other hand wouldnt think twice . And can make a bit of damage . Seen dogs loosing bottom jaws etc |

a fox is unlikely to willingy throw the first bite even at a timed collie . Yr collie is bread sheep dog n a sheep dogs role is also to protect the flock . And a collie is half hunting dog also |

any dog has certain aspects bread into them and those traits have became increasingly strong throughout the blood lines . A lurcher for instants collie/greyhound . Original lurcher . Is bread for hunting . Speed comes from the greyhound . Brains agility and stamina from the collie . Theyre born with a purpose and they grow up knowing that purpose without really needing trained . Instinct tells them what to do . Its mans job to train them to there full potential |

"Untill it took a chunk out of my slipper , wouldnt have been to bad but my foot was in it at the time , ouch "
Pop to the local A and E . Mr Fox has a wide and varied diet . He eats a lot of very long dead animals so his mouth can be a chemical toxic nightmare.

Been bitten by foxes quite a few times. You will be fine. Last year one bit a hole through a pair of 2 day old 150 quid wellies of mine, was more gutted about the wellies then the bite. How did this happen can I ask? |

I think the worst desease any fox can carry is rabbies . Its been decades im sure since the last confirmed case of rabbies . But obviously other things like infection can go on with any bite from any mammal including humans . I would go get checked no matter what tho |

Yes it probably will, if it came up and took a chunk out of your slipper it has no fear, probably hand reared with dogs as friends. Contact your local hunt kennels, it will only be a menace. |

"Perfect solution to prevent being bitten by foxes. It's called a .243 and chucks 100 grains of lead at them at 2450 feet per second. "
And a fantastic way to lose your license doing it in a city! |
