Lucky Dog

In the winter of 2012 McMillan was discovered by Litton Entertainment. CBS Daytime eliminated their Saturday morning cartoon lineup and were in search of more all aged based programming.

McMillan would rescue unadoptable dogs deemed "untrainable" from city shelters, rehabilitate, train them and find them forever homes. Many of these dogs would become therapy and service dogs for disabled people. Production for "Lucky Dog" began in the spring of 2013 which showcased McMillan's love for rescuing dogs and giving them a purpose in life. "Lucky Dog" premiered in the Fall of 2013 on CBS Dream Team. The show was an instant success receiving rave reviews from critics.
