No. Dwarf planets orbit stars just like planets do. Stars orbit the center of their galaxy. An object orbiting a planet would be a moon.
Yes, a dwarf planet can become a moon if it is captured by the gravitational field of a larger planet. This process can happen when a dwarf planet gets close enough to a planet and is pulled in by its gravity. Once captured, the dwarf planet would then orbit the larger planet as one of its moons.
no it's a dwarf planet I would think that it is a dwarf planet, but its moon, Sharon, is nearly as big as it, so some MAY argue that Sharon is a dwarf planet and Pluto is the moon, but considering Pluto is slightly bigger than Sharon, I would think that Sharon would orbit Pluto rather than Pluto orbiting Sharon.
Under the current definition of a planet, yes it can! If a gas giant were to share its orbit with other objects of significant mass (other than moons, comets or asteroids), it would definitely qualify as a dwarf planet. In order to be a planet, it would have to "clear the neighborhood" until it was the dominate influence in its orbit.
The gravitational pull of a brown dwarf system would be weaker than that of a star system but stronger than that of a planet. It is sufficient to keep the system objects in orbit around the brown dwarf.
Neptune. It would be Pluto, but Pluto is a dwarf planet ( a planet that was a planet, but decided that it wasn't a planet)

Yes, it is; even for a dwarf planet like Pluto, it would take an enormous amount of energy to move it out of its orbit. Someone would have noticed!

In order to be classified as a dwarf planet, an object has to be large enough to have achieved hydrostatic equilibrium - that is, forced by gravity into a roughly spherical shape, unlike the odd shapes of asteroids. The lower limit to the size or mass of a dwarf planet is thus much more a matter of observation than formal definition. The size would thus depend upon its mass, the lower limit of which would be dictated by properties of matter. To be considered a proper dwarf planet it would also need to be in solar orbit and not, for example, a moon of another planet; it would further not have cleared the neighborhood around its orbit, as, for example, Pluto has not.

If a dwarf star crashed into a planet,the planet would likely explode.

No, Venus does not orbit a planet. It orbits a star, which is our Sun. It can not orbit a planet , if it did it would be a moon
