PUPPY RUSK RECIPE
The puppy of Bev (our canine dietitian) is teething at the moment and to remedy this and save her coffee table from getting chewed to bits she made this puppy biscuit recipe which is rock hard and satisfying for emerging teeth. These puppy teething rusks are large and thick for a reason so if you break them up into small treats then you’re missing the point. The point being that they’re large so the pup can spend some time biting into this rather than your furniture. Right, let’s get this puppy biscuit recipe started!
INGREDIENTS
Packet of thyme and parsley stuffing mix – cheap supermarket packet! (Or buy here!
)
, 2 mugs of oats (2 cups), 1 mug flour (1 cup), 1 beaten egg, Hot water to mix
METHOD
Add a packet of thyme and parsley stuffing mix to a large bowl!
Add 2 mugs of oats to bowl!
Add a mug of flour!
Add a beaten egg!
Now add some hot water, create a dough ball and leave to rest!
Roll out to 1/2 inch thick and cut out biscuits with large cutter!
Bake at 140° C or gas mark 3 for 50-60 mins or until rock hard!
Leave to cool and give to teething pup or as a reward for your dog.
How many of these can i give my puppy on a daily basis?
It’s really just when they start chewing things and getting all worked up cause they’re teething. But I’d say around 2-3.

Hi, how many biscuits will this recipe make please.
Thanks
Not that many I’m afraid, but they are big.
What sort of flour is used please?
Just normal wheat flour. If you want you can use gluten free but it will need a little extra water
This is the recipe I was searching for when I found this site my 10 week old just loves chewing anything and everything. I wanted something healthy for her but substantial that my eldest could also eat. at the moment it seems like any part of me is the favourite to chew let’s hope she changes to biscuits instead.
They work great. If you have a dehydrator then put them on that after cooking for a few hours to make them even harder. Perfect pup treats and for adults too!
Hello. I made these today – great success -I tried one myself!- & the puppy loves them. I didn’t have a stuffing mix but made my own- 80g breadcrumbs (blitzed water biscuits), 2 teaspoon each of thyme & oregano (didn’t have any sage) 1 low salt stock cube, 1 egg & then continued with your recipe. I can vouch that they taste like hard oatcakes _ great for owner & dog alike!
Well done, Maria. Sounds like you made an amazing batch of biccies 🙂
