All our dogs, except Lola, love oranges, Jumbo has just eaten a whole orange- peel and all. He picks one up (wind fall) and walks around happily with it for a while and then sits down and eats the whole lot- healthier than a biscuit I guess!

Next doors Jack Russel loves oranges, satsumas etc but has them peeled for him !
Aside from him i have never known a dog to enjoy citrus fruit.
I would think that eating oranges + peel would give any intestinal worms an unpleasant shock ! :)

I have a russian blue cat who loves melon...not tried the woofer with oranges though (they can cause the squits).

Penny loves all fruit, but oranges have to be peeled and segmented! Lol

Not sure about oranges but mY two were in the kitchen on their own on Tuesday and ate half a lemon, they don't seem to have been put off either because one dropped out of the shopping bag yesterday and Archie grabbed it and had a good chew before I managed to get it off him. They both love Tomatoes.

My jack russell would eat satsumas but not oranges :nowink:

Our two year old granddaughter asked for an orange from the fruit bowl the other day, which she then brought to me and asked me to "pee it pees nanny". Having peeled the orange for her she then left me with the orange in my hand and happily ate the peel!

Indie likes carrots but not onions or tomatoes. Not tried him on oranges, though apples are liked.

Sons dog likes a satsuma or similar, but sees it as a ball & plays with it until she pierces the skin & then won't go near it. She's very funny when she plays with it as she'll put her head down on one side & 'spy' on it :lol:. I'd forgotten she did this as a pup until I looked after her one day. I had an orange to eat & she started whining which is not like her, then I realised she wanted one to play with. Only thing is I had to wait until she had given up as she's trained not to get anything by making a fuss.

Don't forget onions are extremely poisonous to dogs though ;)

Our dogs love segments of oranges and satsumas, but not oranges. On the onion front, they will eat it cooked. But as our dogs are so large, I'm not overly concerned: they'd have to have about 200 g apiece for it to have ill effects.
