National Fox Welfare Society
Yes, the National Fox Welfare Society received the “puppy” photos from a member of the public (NFWS). “We were contacted by a lovely lady called Beccie through our Facebook Page,” NFWS wrote in March 2017. The “puppies” were correctly identified at that point.

The NFSW post continued, “Beccie had sent a few photos asking if the babies in the photos were indeed fox cubs. [We] confirmed they certainly were.” The NFWS is a 20-year-old organization, so its experts were in the best position to spot baby foxes.
