Its about a dog called Kitty and she meets another dog called Bailey (But she calls him Dog) Together Bailey and Kitty set out on an adventure through Southern Spain. They meet new things and new people. They venture out together until they find peace and security at the secret garden.

It was a cool story, though the dogs felt more like humans than dogs, but well... I actually thought Kitty and Bailey travelled across Spain when reading "Together they embank on a dangerous journey through Spain" on the back cover, but I was obviously mistaken as they only travelled a little bit... a nice story to read for all dog lovers in the world.
