Trivia

• Christopher Masterson had a small role in the film, however, his older brother, Danny Masterson, had a leading role in the film. The two were not playing brothers in the movie so neither one mentioned to anyone that they were related. When producers went to view the film, they noticed the resemblance and reshot all of Chris's scenes with another actor.
• There is a scene in the movie where Nicholle Tom's character, Ryce, is locked in an attic by her drunk boyfriend, played by Ashley Hamilton, in which he clearly plans on sexually assaulting her. Although Beethoven, of course, saves the day, many critics, including Roger Ebert, felt the scene treated the serious issue of date rape too lightly and/or that it was inappropriate for a family film.
• Kevin Dunn, who plays Missy's original owner, is uncredited.
• The movie's theme song, "The Day I Fell in Love", performed by Dolly Parton and James Ingram, was nominated for an Academy Award, a Golden Globe, and a Grammy Award for Best Song from a Motion Picture. It is almost unanimously considered one of the main highlights of the film.
