Today, I discovered that my 100-pound Rottweiler is absolutely terrified of (drumroll please) orange peels. Yup. A byproduct of my lunch will turn this hulking monolith with teeth into a whimpering puddle of pee. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dog became scared of his own food bowl. He now barks for ages every time he sees it. FML
Today, I learned that my big, tough, strong dog is terrified of spiders when he jumped, knocked over a table, and then peed on the spider to drown it. FML
Today, I discovered that the delicious beef jerky strips I’ve been eating all week are actually the dog’s teeth cleaning chews. FML
Today, my dog got his head stuck in a container, panicked, and shat himself all over the living room. FML
Today, I discovered that one of my dogs has taken a liking to rolling over his own poop. I found out by petting him. FML
Today, my 5-year-old, overweight Siberian Husky tackled me because he thought that my lipstick was food. FML
Today, I finally realized why my 9-week-old puppy was going to the bathroom so much. I went to pick up the food bag and realized she had chewed a hole in the bottom, and eaten half of the bag in the last 4 days. Goodbye 30 pounds of dog food, and 100$ for a vet visit. FML
Today, I went home for lunch. Upon opening the door, I smelled something horrid. My dog had opened his cage, eaten all the dog treats, and had diarrhea all over my bed and bedroom floor. FML
Today, I bought some bitter-apple spray to stop my puppy chewing on everything. Later, I found out how effective it was, when I tried to eat a sandwich, and gagged at the horrifying taste on my hands. My dog seems unaffected, and continues to chew the table legs. FML
Today, my sweet 7-month-old puppy ran up to a big fat dog at the park and did what she always does: roll over on her back to start to play. The big fat dog lifted his leg and peed all over my puppy's belly. After the shock, my soaking wet puppy jumped on me. FML

Lots of dogs dislike citrus from what I've heard. So maybe he was reacting to the smell?

have you had him for his whole life? if not he could have had oranges thrown at him as a puppy, causing him to fear them. just like dogs that were beaten by one owner would be afraid if you lift your hand wrong

My dad had a great dane. He was afraid of mice. Said great dane decided to but through a screen door after sticking his nose in a bag of dog food with mice in it, and ripped up my dads water bead. Dogs are weird.

Learn more about dogs before you get one. Dogs don't like citrus due to the smell. They have such a sensitive sense of smell, strong smells can actually be painful. You have taken in, for the life of your dog, a very large powerful living being. Rather than mock him for something that is natural, learn about him or find him a new home with someone who knows and can raise his breed appropriately.

My dog was afraid of black people... (she is a rescue dog who was beaten and chained down by a black dude). This dog added a burst of love in my life... I literally would die for her!
