IT'S MUTT MAYHEM FOR MILLY MCCARTHY! Milly McCarthy is back - and she's determined to prove she's responsible enough to get her very own dog. Her genius plan? Start a dog-walking business and show Mam and Dad just how brilliant she is at caring for pets. Sure, what could possibly go wrong? Quite a lot, it turns out ... Between a dotty Dalmatian, a precocious poodle and a lost labradoodle, Milly suddenly finds herself running a full-on doggy daycare - and the mayhem quickly spirals out of control.
