You could just use like chopsticks or a second stick, use one for dipping and the other one to slide the dog off the other stick into the oil. Might lose a little batter at the end of the dog though.
I think if I’m working over hot fryer oil I’d want a secure grip on each part, so I’d probably still be using something pinchy to smoothly pull through. One loose stick seems like it wouldn’t be enough control to move quickly and safely.

Use a fork. Put the stick between the middle tines of the fork, and slide it toward the dog and off the stick (into the oil).
Dunno if that adequately explained how I’m picturing it in my head
