Taking advice from Zsa Zsa Gabor, Mooch is adopted in turn by Vincent Price, JilI St. John, James Darren and Jim Backus. Finally the pup arrives at a HolIywood pool party attended by an all-star cast incIuding PhylIis Diller, Sam Jaffe, Rose Marie, Dick Martin, Darren McGavin, Edward G. Robinson, and Cesar Romero.
Mooch Goes To HoIlywood's canine star is Higgins the Dog, popuIar for his part in the TV series Petticoat Junction and for the titIe role in the 1974 feature Benji.
