"...a bouncer in Birmingham hit me in the face with a crescent wrench 5 times, and my wife's boyfriend broke my jaw with a fence post, so if you don't buy a trailer from me, it aint going to hurt my feelings."

That is all the vet is going to do; except he is going to charge you $1000 and the dog will have to wait a lot longer to get them out. Some people just can't do anything.
The vet will put the dog to sleep to do it. The quills are barbed on the end so it's more painful coming out than going in. Dr. Pol treats a lot of dogs for the same condition; it's called dog stupid. He has some repeat patients that are beyond stupid. Also, if not removed properly, a quill could break off and stay embedded, causing an infection.
It's a pretty good show.

Porcupine quills in a dog are a painful emergency requiring prompt veterinary care, as the backward-facing barbs cause quills to embed deeply, migrate, and risk serious infection or organ damage. Do not attempt to pull them out yourself unless there are only one or two, as you risk breaking them or pushing them deeper; instead, keep the dog calm, prevent rubbing, use an E-collar if possible, and get to a vet immediately for safe removal, often requiring sedation or anesthesia.

Thank you, I learned something new. I would have just grabbed some needle nose pliers and started yanking them out.
