DICEY (adjective): risky, unpredictable, or likely to cause trouble. Example: “Driving home in that ice storm felt pretty dicey.”
Similar: risky, uncertain, chancy, iffy. Opposite: safe, sure, certain.
Did you know? "Dicey" comes from the unpredictability of rolling dice — slang that took off in British English in the mid-20th century.
How DICEY fits the puzzle
DICEY circles D, C and E, which give the punchline the D of BOARDER and the C and E of COLLIE. A word meaning "risky" turning up in a puzzle about a dog renting a room is a happy coincidence.
Its circled letters feed the caption answer, "BOARDER" COLLIE.
