My dog loved apples but he never figured out that he could just bite into a whole apple. I could take him to an orchard with apples all over the ground and he wouldn't touch any of them, but if I started eating one he would beg me for a piece.

Omg my dog is the same. She freaking loves apples, but had to learn to eat pieces with skin still on.

At first she would bring me the piece of apple with this look like “please peel it” then she realized she has teeth.
