Ha ha, yes that happens too. I have a pair of tawny owls that turn up and 'hunt for the mouse' regularly when I use the call in a certain area on one of my permissions. Poor little perishers must be fed up with me by now.
Which caller for foxing guys?

Owls will come into hand call and fly around your head 
. Fox will come to almost anything including a smoke alarm and then sometimes not be interested in anything. It's as much to do with the mood of the fox as the caller and call. I called two in last night one with my hand which was 300 yds away when i saw it running in. It sat down at 75 yds. Another called with the Red fox pup call on the Fox pro. Then when I went to another location I could see two foxes worrying lambing ewes in another field adjacent to a perm. Nothing I could do would persuade them to move over the border.
The only down side to hand calling is using your hand after the first one
