Other mistake: The puppies constantly change age/size between scenes. Notably near the beginning, in the basement they are old enough to be walking around when the janitor is whistling to them, and a few minutes later in the Newton's basement they are nearly newborn. When the family go on holiday, when Ted is showing the puppies to the girl with braces, they have grown quite big to nearly adult size, and in the next scene where Mr. Newton is chopping firewood and they are cooped up, they are pretty young again.

Question: What happened to all the dogs the Newtons rescued from the end of the first film? None of them appear in this sequel except for one dog, Sparky, in two scenes, but it looks like he doesn't live with them anymore.

Answer: This takes place some time after the first movie so the dogs from the first movie were most likely adopted or reunited with their proper owners.
