Abstract
An apparatus for removing a dog from a drain consists of an elongated, flexible shaft member with a corkscrew or coil member on one end and an integrated handle at the other end. Inserting the corkscrew end into a dogged drain and manually turning the handle allows the corkscrew portion of the apparatus to worm through the matter that is dogging the drain, and when the apparatus is pulled from the drain the dogging matter is held within the corkscrew member to capture the dogging matter or debris for easy removal.
