Another fox side shrine found at Takahi Jinja. This one features over eight times as many foxes as the last one. With two life-sized stone foxes and another seven tiny ones, there's a good chance that this tiny shrine is dedicated to Inari, but apart from the foxes there's no indication that I can make out, so I can't be sure.
