A nine-month old puppy has been saved after swallowing a stick half the length of his body.
The crossbreed, named Rocky, was taken to Southampton Pet Hospital by his owner after suffering "severe sickness", vet charity PDSA said.
A team of vets then worked to remove the 10in (25cm) stick during an hour-long emergency operation.
PDSA vet Zofia Bauman said she had "never seen anything like it", adding the puppy was lucky to be alive.
