(DVD, Walt Disney)
A young fox and hound dog become best friends while pups. After they grow up, their friendship is threatened by the fact that everyone around them expects them to be enemies. The hound's owner, a crotchety hunter voiced by Jack Albertson, vows to kill the fox after his older hound dog is injured in a chase. The fox's owner, a kindly older woman, tries to save him by releasing him in a game preserve. After adjusting to his new surroundings, the fox meets a female and it appears they will settle down, but the hunter has other ideas. More than just an animated talking animal picture, the story is not afraid to explore more adult themes like socialization and expected behavior. A climactic fight scene involving a bear is vividly illustrated.
