The plot of ''Literature/TheFoxAndTheHound'' stars a human-raised red fox named Tod. After Tod causes the death of a hunter's prize hound, Chief, the [[AnimalNemesis hunter pursues Tod in a fit of vengeance]], aided by his aging half-bloodhound Copper. Of ten chapters, Copper gets four as the viewpoint character and Tod six. The novel takes great pains to show both characters' distinctly non-human thought processes - in particular, scent rules their world far more than sound or sight, especially in Copper's case.

While Copper is well-trained enough to not go after animals he isn't sicced on, that doesn't mean he isn't ''really tempted'' sometimes. Tod hunts for a living, and during a bad drought actually gets most of his water from the blood of his prey.
