it could go either way. Sometimes it can be passed but sometimes it can get tangled in the intestines and cause a blockage. I'd keep a very very close eye on his eating habits over the next few days. Plus make note of bowel movements and vomiting. A dog with a intestinal blockage will want to eat at first and act like things are normal, however he will not be able to poop and will start vomiting because the food will not pass the blockage.

you could call the emergency vet but they will not be able to do anything about it right now. its kind of a wait and see situation. floss will not show up on an x-ray so they won't be able to see if its caught up on anything.
