(Hubley had already helped his partner Jill Donaldson create another series, titled Fantasies, with the character Bippo The Hippo.) Foxy Loxy's first appearance on screen was in December 1963 in "Chicken Little". This old-western themed short features Chicken Little developing affection for the tavern singer who would become a Fox. Foxy Loxy and his then-nameless Chicken would appear in another cartoon that same year: "Fun On The Farm" (November 21 1957), a musical set on a Farm. The plot bares some similarities to The Fox & The Stork, by Susanna Davidson Illustrated by John Joven which Donaldson and Hubley contributed on. This also marks the first time Foxy Loxys name was mentioned.

Once the viewer manages to yell his name in sight, he will jump out of his hiding place and creep towards Dora and Boots to try to swipe their stuff. He can be stopped by Dora, Boots and the viewer saying "Swiper, no swiping!" thrice, upon which after he snaps his fingers with his catchphrase, "Oh, man!" before escaping. However, he has been shown to expose his heroic side in some episodes like "Swiper the Explorer", where he assists Dora and Boots in returning a baby fox to its parents. He is voiced by Marc Weiner.
