Cipy the Grumpster

I first heard about Cipy when I learned that he was in our Romanian shelter but not coping well and so could I foster him next.

So Cipy arrived here on 20th January 2018 and was foster dog no.22. And so Cipy, the grumpiest dog EVER came in to my life!

25/09/2023

What the heck is this…vermin, vermin….get it off me.
Who does she think she is, curling up with the Chipster?

07/09/2023

I don’t know if it’s possible for me to actually be any more handsome than I already am. I mean, look at me.
Handsome or what? 🩵

When my nanny ‘as visitors and mums not ‘ere, I ‘ave to be put behind the stair gate.
But this week, someone forgot didn’t they? So, once again, there’s no way I’m lettin’ anyone in the house, no way.
So my foster dad made this sign and put it on the inside of the door.
I ‘ave to say I’m quite proud of it!

21/08/2023

I ain’t been on ‘ere for a bit ‘cos mum got three flipin foster dogs ain’t she and so I’ve been busy trying to give them the Cipy treatment but they don’t seem to care.
Anyway, someone forgot to put me behind the stair gate this mornin’ didn’t they so when my nanny’s carer tried to get in, I refused to allow it. Ha! It caused all sorts of bother it did.
My mum said she still loves me even though she was a bit cross.
Sorry mum.

01/06/2023

Look…I don’t mind little foster Doris, she’s alright as dogs go. It’s not ‘er fault she looks like a gremlin.
But even though she’s alright, I have to keep the young uns in check from time to time.
So mum caught me blockin’ ‘er from comin’ down the stairs this mornin’.
It’s my favourite trick! And one I can rely on ‘cos no dogs dare pass me! Ha!
Mum and I always have words about it but she loves me so I don’t take too much notice.

23/05/2023

Carrie Chisholm, the woman that does all the foster dogs grooming only gave me this, didn’t she? A flipin’ happy bow.
Me? Happy? You ‘avin’ a laugh woman.
You won’t get away with this, I tell ya.

15/05/2023

My mum has only gone and bought me one of these hideous harnesses.
It’s not surprising, but people on walks lately think I’m really cute and so they go to stroke me. Naturally I bite their entire arm off.
Mum says that people are stupid and should know better, especially adults.
I even have a ‘CAUTION’ lead but people still try and say hello to me. I tell ‘em straight to BACK OFF.
I’m okay on walks see, and I can even go off lead as I just mind my own business as long as PEOPLE LEAVE ME ALONE.
So, now I have to wear this. So embarrassing. But, if people get their heads bitten off now, it’s their own fault, ‘ain’t it?

12/05/2023

I can’t stand these big foster dogs, Wilson..Sansa, they’re all the same. So I block the bottom stair so they can’t go up or down.
Foster Doris, she’s okay ‘cos she’s a littlun but Sansa, no chance, she needs to know who’s in charge and that’s ME.
Then mum comes and tells me off and makes me move.

06/05/2023

I’m watching the Kings Coronation, the Royal family should have Chipsters not Corgis.
I might be ‘ard but I love the Royals. So does my mum.
Have a really great Royal grumpy day everyone.

19/04/2023

Cipy the Guv’nor here, yes, yes, I know I’m looking old but that’s because of all these idiot foster dogs init. Little foster Doris though, she’s okay, bit of a little baby but everyone can’t be as ‘ard as me.
Someone the other day called me “cute”. Mum couldn’t believe it! I soon put ‘em right, no one calls me cute and gets away with it.
Hope you’re all having the worst grumpy day.

24/03/2023

I ain’t been on here for a while ‘cos mum only gone and got these two idiot foster dogs, ain’t she?
Doris and Bailey are like the size of a pigeon and I could eat them alive if I wanted to but mum says I’m not allowed.
They’ve had a bad life so I’m goin’ easy on ‘em.
Mum is givin’ me lots of attention so that I know that I’m still the best dog ever.
Have a grumpy day.

23/02/2023

So….that foster dog Mollie left us today, she’d been here 4 long months, 4 months too long I say.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind the littluns, I don’t LIKE ‘em, but I put up with ‘em.
So, now I can have a nice snooze without that little thing chasin’ the cat all day like she used to.
‘Ave a miserable grumpy life Mollie.

19/02/2023

Last Fursday, my mum had a doggy emergency 5 hours away and because of that, she only went and missed me burfday didn’t she?
Last Fursday, I turned 13 years old.
I’ve forgiven mum because I luv ‘er so much. Although I gave ‘er a warnin’.
She’s let me go down the pub and have me steak n ale pie but I’ve had to come back early so me tag don’t go off, init.
Happy 13th Burfday to me.

10/02/2023

That idiot dog Wilson was adopted 2 days ago. Good riddance, I couldn’t stand ‘im, always flipin happy and I don’t do ‘appy.
I hope he has the best grumpy life.
Anyway, here’s me today on my walk having back rubs on the grass.

02/02/2023

I used to let mum pick me up to put me in the van for walks, with a little nip at the end of course. Not any more. Now, I WILL bite.
And then I refused to get in the van so mum would have to just stand there for ages until I decide to jump in.
So, mum went and got me this ramp. It’s perfect. I’m not stressed, she’s not stressed, I’m straight up and in every time.
Cheers mum.

01/02/2023

Can’t believe mum is sharing this photo of me 😡
Anyway, this is how I sleep under mums covers, I’m just tryin’ to keep her warm you understand.
I’ll be off later to cause mayhem on our walk, not sure how grumpy I feel at the moment. I’m only on a 4 right now but if mum moves out of this bed, I’ll shoot straight to a 10.
Have a rotten grumpy day everyone.

28/01/2023

My mum just caught me being all cute and everything laying my head on a toy.
One thing I wanna make absolutely clear….this ‘ain’t my toy and I definitely ain’t cute.
I’d had me afternoon at the pub drinki’ brown ale and eatin’ me steak an ale pie so I was tired, that’s all.
Hope you’ve all had a really grumpy day.

21/01/2023

I loves my mum and she loves me. She is the only human I let kiss me as she knows when to kiss me and when to stop.
I loves my lap cuddles but I go ballistic if mum moves.
Up until now, I’d let mum just about lift me up into her van for walks but I’d still nip her. But I don’t let her touch me anymore at all now so she has to wait forever until I decide that I want to jump in.
I predict a very grumpy weekend.
‘Ave a rotten day everyone.

20/12/2022

I’m so darn handsome aren’t I?
It’s been a good week for me, not so good for mum, I’ve been the grumpiest ever.
Mum was sat on the sofa with me, I always always sleep next to her and she dared to move. So I bit her. She should be used to it by now.
Must be because it’s Christmas time, bah Humbug.
I hope you all have a rotten Christmas and a miserable New Year.

09/11/2022

Darn mum, she’s only gone and accepted another foster dog, ain’t she?
This is Mollie. Fair enough, she ain’t had the best life. And I don’t mind the littluns so I’m being good with her.
But, look at her, seriously, happy as anything. I grump at her to let her know who’s boss and she ain’t ‘aving any of me steak and ale pie nor me brown ale neither.
As long as we’ve got that straightened out, we’ll be okay.

23/10/2022

You know how much I can’t stand foster Wilson? There’s a WHOLE settee and he always always chooses to lay right next to me. I’ve had to get used to it.
I just want to fall in to a nice grumpy sleep. I’ll turn my back on him in a minute, you wait and see.

19/10/2022

My mum says I’m the best boy. When I’m out, I couldn’t care less about humans, that’s just in the house I hate them.
But, I don’t care much for other dogs, especially happy ones, they get on my nerves.
I just want to be about my own grumpy way.
Mum has to pop me on a lead when she sees that I might go off on one. But lately, I’ve been so ridiculously good, I’ve not had to go on a lead once.
She says it’s because I’m old and can’t be bothered anymore.
And the greatest thing about me, is that if mum tells me not to do something, then I won’t. I’m super obedient.
See, I CAN be a good boy.
I’m just having a rest by the shore. Foster Wilson is in all the mud of course because the tide is out. Idiot dog.

17/10/2022

Ha! I just stole Wilson’s ball!
He’s only a foster dog, has been here too long and he’s a loser anyway so who cares?
Mum reminds me that I’ve been here longer than Wilson but that’s not the point.
Oops, here comes mum to tell me off!

11/10/2022

This is what I do…I sit on the stairs and block foster Wilson from going down ‘cos I’m in charge.
Wilson is too happy for my liking so I keep him in his place and don’t let him come down the stair and he’s too much of a wuss to even try.
Ooops, here comes mum to tell me off!

01/10/2022

Well, get me…I’ve only gone and won a competition for best Golden Oldie, ain’t I?
And get this…I’ll be in the 2023 calendar.
So there! They didn’t have Best Grump available but this’ll do me fine.

20/09/2022

I don’t know why but I get grumpier by the day and I send my mum in to despair sometimes.
My nanny lives with us and she has a carer once a day just to wash her because she is bedridden and then my mum takes over after she’s finished work.
I’ve always hated the carers, coming in to my house, who do they think they are?
Last week, I bit one of them and made her bleed.
They always say it’s okay and they try to win me over. But I don’t have any of it.
Today, I blocked the door so she couldn’t get in at all and my mum had to come home from work and sort it out. I was so pleased to see her. She’s the only one allowed in this house.
I bit my dad on his leg at the weekend too but I thought he was someone else.
People have said I should be put to sleep, whatever that means, or that they just wouldn’t put up with me but I’m always sorry for biting people, I know I shouldn’t but it just gets the better of me.
People also say to shut me away in a room but my mum knows that I would hate that so much.
Anyway, so my mum now has to get a stair gate and shut me behind it when the carers come and I guess it’s all my own fault.
But don’t worry, I can bark and snarl from behind the gate just so they know I’m still in charge.
I’m sorry mum.
Here’s a photo of me to cheer you up.

28/08/2022

Well, I had a mini stroke this morning. I was tipping over and going round in circles and panting like crazy.
I’ve been told it’s my age, I should make a good recovery but that I need to carry on living life to the fullest.
So, I’m out trying to find people and dogs to bite.
Nothing like a good rub in the grass.
I don’t want to be kept at home resting, I want to be out and about. I am 12 after all.
I ain’t giving up me ci**rs and brown ales just yet.
My mum said she’ll always look after me even though I am an absolute pain.

19/08/2022

How handsome am I? Just waitin for mum to hurry up and get us to the lovely forest.
HURRY UP MUUUUUM!
Wilson and Bobby are in the attached cage next to me but I have to be put on my own otherwise I’ll beat Wilson up on the way.

03/08/2022

Cipy here. I’m on a nice walk with the other two numpties and my mum and we’re sat overlooking Portsmouth.
I’m going to get on home in a minute, put me slippers on, have me steak and ale pie, a cigar and watch the ‘orse racin’, not forgettin me brown ale.
On a scale of 1-10 of grumpiness, I’m pretty chilled today on a 6, but there’s still time. If foster Wilson plays up, I’ll ‘av ‘im.
Hope you’re all having the worst grumpy day.

27/07/2022

I do like a good paddle, I do.
Foster Wilson is a big lump and always splashes me and I don’t like it.
So, I chase him out of the water which just seems to make him want to do it even more.
It’s been a perfect grumpy day today. Even my mum said I’ve been a very good boy today as I didn’t need putting on a lead once.
