Was talking domestication vs. taming today, and reminded me of this vid: An interview with a domesticated fox owner. Verdict: Not a dog, not a cat, still an exotic with special care needs.
If you've never read up on what domestication does to an animal brain and appearance, It's really worth a look. Amazingly, the same physical differences show up across domesticated species that are absent in wild relatives, like white blazes. 
The same is true for features like bobtails, floppy ears, "split mask" patterning, "socks." and more. It's very possible these physical changes are linked to the selectively-bred-for genetics that domesticate animals.
There's always the possibility humans expressly CHOOSE to breed these characteristics, but it's worth remembering the Russian fox domestication project "failed" because the fur farm foxes started showing these "faults" spontaneously, which made their fur unsalable.
The only characteristic those foxes were selected for was tameness, and socks, blazes, curly tails, floppy ears, and split masks STILL showed up, even when no one wanted them to.
But yeah, make no mistake, domestication is genetic. Neurologically, a dog is not a wolf. A sheep is not a mouflon. A chicken is not a jungle fowl. We've molded these animals to serve human desires, and accept us as their masters and companions.
A grizzly, pulled from its mother at weeks-old, hand-raised by a person, and kept in a home? It's not domesticated. It's acclimated. It's tame. It may not have the survival competence of a wild bear, but it has the brain of one.
We can convince all sorts of animals into accepting our friendship or authority; macaws, whitetail deer, fennecs, porcupines. And we can teach others, through positive exposure, we're not a threat and safely tolerated; pythons, toads, some fish.
But none of these creatures has been molded by humans, over thousands of years or a single century, into something you could fairly call "domesticated."
Maybe they will be. Some are definitely on their way, IMO. But they're not there yet.

Here's a great vid by CGP Grey that talks more about why early humans chose the animals they did to domesticate, and what domestication really is.
