The trick with apples is to makes sure you either cut it and give half at a time or peel part of it...sometimes I just make a few slices with a knife. To let the juice rise to the surface.
The important part is to let them know that the skin is not the flavor that the whole apple is. If you cut one in half, offer it cut side down, so his tongue touches the apple itself and gets the flavor. They aren't very impressed with the skin's flavor, but they will eat the skin if you can get them interested in the apple.

Fiber is good for dogs, too.
