I feel awful. Out fishing and I'm baiting a hook and think I dropped the bait, look down and see the dog eat it up. Look back up at my fishing rod and noticed I didnt have the swivel closed and the leader with the hook was gone, so I actually dropped the baited hook and short leader. He didnt show any symptoms but I ended the fishing trip and headed home. Now I'm worried something fierce.
Pic of dog that eats everything. 
I'm hoping it gets balled up into a big ol duke and passes but does that actually happen? ETA: He's currently in surgery.

The hook will need to be removed by the vet or it will likely kill your dog in slow and painful fashion. |

I was steelhead fishing up on the Trinity river with a bunch of guys. One of them has a yellow lab that ate some bait some asshole left on the shore. It had a hook in the middle. He took it to the vet an hour away. The vet fed the dog a big bowl of dry food, let him drink a bunch of water then gave him syrup of ipacac. He threw everything up and the hook with it.
Vet said if that didn't work it was surgery. It happen quite frequently during the Steelhead/Salmon run. The bait was tuna balls wrap over the hook. |

Feed the dog a ton of bread and watch closely for it to pass. That will be the entirety of a visit to the vet.

My dog once ate a treble hook covered in stink bait. We only found out when he threw it up in the kitchen the next day.
We still took him to the vet for x-rays and some medicine, in case it caused any damage in his gut. OP take the dog to the vet. |

Damn. I hope all goes well.
I had something similar with a piece of window screen ( the x-ray was pretty bright like that) Thankfully, surgery wasn't necessary and he passed it pretty quick. I freaked out though. That hook looks sharp. Good on you for paying attention and getting it to the vet. They just can't help themselves sometimes. |

Should have just given it a shit ton of hydrogen peroxide I have since learned that if the hook sets in the esophagus its a huge PITA to remove and likely deadly, so inducing vomiting would be a sketchy proposition. Dog is home now, in obvious pain. I have some Tramadol and other meds he will be on for a while. In two weeks he has to return for staple removal.... |

Hope your pup recovers, OP.
Our now 15 yo weim tried to eat a hook when she was about 6 months old. I was getting ready for an ice fishing trip - sorting hooks, making sure everything was ready to go. One of the hooks was a big ass airplane jig. I think it had 3 big treble hooks hanging of of it. I packed all my hooks, leader, bobbers etc into one of those 5 gal buckets with an insulated seat on it and set it aside in the living room next to my pile of other gear. Next day at work I get a call that madchen had eaten a hook. I went home to find a pretty sad weimeraner. She had dug out the airplane jig out of the bottom of the bucket, got one treble hook in her lip, another in her paw, forget what the third hook was stuck through, ear I think. I got the dykes out and cut the various hooks and took her to the vet to remove them. f'ng dags. |
