This is the most common and beloved version of the story. The homeowner looks outside and sees a fluffy, reddish-orange animal curled up on the porch. They approach slowly, only to discover that it isn’t a wild fox at all, but a lost, shivering reddish-colored puppy, such as a Chow Chow mix, Shiba Inu, or Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. The story ends with the animal getting a warm bath, a bowl of food, and perhaps even a forever home.
