12/11/15 19:10 Basic information: Dice is a 3 year old male Pitt Bull who was brought in as a stray. He was being watched by a care taker for his previous owner for about a month. He has no known injuries or health problems. The two things his caretaker liked most about him was; he’s friendly and acts like a big kid. Social Life and Personality: Around children Dice is relaxed and playful and exuberant at play. Around other dogs he is also relaxed and playful and exuberant at play. He was not around cats in his previous home. He is house-trained but had accidents a few times a week if not walked regularly. He was kept indoors only and has a high activity level. He can be described as playful, pushy, confident, excitable, affectionate and friendly. Behavior: Dice has never bitten a person or animal. If his food bowl is touched while eating he would continue eating and would push the hand out the way with his nose, he had a wagging tail and relaxed body. He was playful if someone tried to take a toy or treat out of his mouth while playing or eating. He was not allowed on furniture. He wasn’t bothered if his paws were touch or if his coat was brushed. If he is held or restrained he wiggles out of the grip and becomes playful. He’s friendly if an unfamiliar person approached the home or his previous owner. He isn’t bothered if he is disturbed while sleeping. For a New Family to Know: Dice knows how to sit on command. For exercise he went on brisk walks 2 times a day. He was crate trained and does well for 12 hours. When his caretaker was home he would tend to follow her around and when left alone he would whine. He isn’t bothered by loud noises. He ate dry dog food and at night he slept in his dog crate. Behavior during intake: Dice had a wagging tail and wiggly body throughout intake. He allowed me to pet him, collar him, and take pictures. He sat on command, jumped for attention, and licked my hands. He showed no signs of aggression.

12/15/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: ” He is friendly and acts like a big kid “. The words of Dice and Henna’s caretaker who housed both dogs for an owner who never came back to pick them up. I met Dice while he was enjoying himself, mingling happily with dogs his size in a playgroup. His sitter was right. Dice is great with other dogs. He would be very gentle with children and welcoming of strangers, house trained (verified by us) and crate trained up to 12hours. Dice is gorgeous, part Pittie and part Bulldog, handsomely made and magnificently cared for. He makes of course snorting sounds, has a lovely smile and sparkling eyes. He is a strong boy, pulls on the leash and sits on command or for treats. He is excited in all his doings but slows down for a butt or head scratch. Dice is indeed a “kid” at heart. He believes that life has to be lived happily with lots of people, dogs and kids. For sure, there is plenty of that around… Just come visit us, ask to meet our boy, spend time with him and make his wish come true while getting a loyal and loving forever best friend. Dice is at the Manhattan Care Center.
