The film begins with a typical morning in the Newton household. After the family leaves for the day, the bored Beethoven sneaks out of the house. As he wanders about, he gazes wistfully at a pair of poodles being walked on lease, a pair of doves in a tree and a pair of dogs kissing in the park. When his eyes fall upon the beautiful Missy, it is love at first sight and the two dogs nuzzle as Grillo gives them each an ice cream cone. For this scene, the dogs responded to their trainer's command, "Nuzzle", which Beethoven did easily. The dog playing Missy was a bit reticent and required some food placed in Beethoven's collar as an extra incentive for her to nuzzle. When Regina comes to the park and takes Missy away in her car, Beethoven chases the car through the streets. For this scene, no public vehicles were permitted in the area and all moving traffic was controlled for the safety of the dog.
