Fall in love with the most famous St. Bernard of all time in the original blockbuster, Beethoven. Barely escaping from nefarious dognappers, an adorable puppy named Beethoven adopts the unsuspecting Newton family - and promptly grows up into 185 pounds of romping, drooling, disaster-prone dog. Unfortunately, even after proving his canine credential to mom and the kids, the heroic hound gets nowhere with uptight dad, George (Charles Grodin). When a nasty veterinarian (Dean Jones) makes Beethoven the target of an unspeakable animal experiment, George becomes the only hope for saving the Newtons' furriest family member. It's head-over-tails adventure in the most fetching canine comedy ever!
