A tender coming-of-age story about an unlikely friendship between natural enemies, told with warmth and playfulness but shadowed by the inevitability of separation and duty.

When a feisty little fox named Tod is adopted into a farm family, he quickly becomes friends with a fun and adorable hound puppy named Copper. Life is full of hilarious adventures until Copper is expected to take on his role as a hunting dog -- and the object of his search is his best friend!
