A much less funny story is how that pitbull mauled Sly's infant son, Sly lost custody and the dog was put down.

I used to go over to Sly's place just for entertainment value. It was
crazy. Everything you could think of, girls, drugs, guns, completely
wackadoo. He even had a zoo. A fucking soul zoo. He had this monkey.
Every time I went over this monkey would clamber down and bash his pit
bull over the head before jumping back on the fence. It drove the dog
wild. Only this one time Sly greased the fence and the monkey slid back
down. The dog tore the monkeys chest out, right in front of us. It was
always like that at Sly's. It was like the fall of Rome with afro's.'
