Grapefruit skin and seeds are not toxic to dogs in small quantities. Only concentrated seed extracts have the potential to be mildly toxic. Grapes, raisons and grape seeds are toxic to dogs though, so definitely be careful when having those around your dog. I hope that helps and all is well with your Pug.
