Lady and the Tramp

Continuity mistake: Lady is put in her bed and the master leaves the kitchen but he goes back in and puts a newspaper on the floor and leaves again but Lady gets out of her bed so the master comes back once more and puts her back in her bed but the newspaper on the floor has vanished.

Continuity mistake: When Lady is running away from the pet shop she is chased by the angry mutts. The middle dog's inner ear color is solid green yet in the next scene is pink. (2006 edition).

Continuity mistake: After the crocodile scene, Lady and Trump jump away and land on a narrow street inches away from the hyena cage. After the hyena stops laughing, the place is completely different: Wide and with a fountain in the middle. Lady is sitting still so they couldn't have gone somewhere else in between shots.

Continuity mistake: The screen doors on the Darlings' front doors appear and disappear between scenes. Also, with double doors, one door is bolted shut with top and bottom latches most of the time ("inactive") with the other door being the "active" door that is opened and closed when coming or going. However, throughout the film characters open either door, which would be impossible to do without interfering with the lock mechanism, the door stop mouldings, etc. and damaging the doors' edges.

Continuity mistake: Darling's wedding ring keeps appearing and disappearing off of her finger throughout the film, and in the scene where she is putting the flower pot on the window sill, it changes to her right hand instead of her left.

Continuity mistake: When Lady enters the bedroom where the baby is put asleep, the wall in the back is an absolute chaos: A wooden chest appears/ disappears randomly; the things on the chest magically disappear only to become a blanket in the final shot; the mirror becomes a painting, and, last but not least, the wall has either a smooth paint or a wallpaper with flower motifs.

Continuity mistake: When Trusty is having a dream on his porch, a striped caterpillar makes his way down from a potted plant on the front door's right side. So Trusty - still asleep - sniffs his way along the porch's floorboards where the caterpillar falls between a crack. Suddenly he wakes up to see Lady and Jock waiting at the staircase. In the next shot he's asking which way the caterpillar went, but if you look at the plant behind him you can see how it's now placed on the door's left side instead. (00:12:00)

Pretty soon a horse drawn dog pound wagon rolls by, and a worker gets out to nail an impound notice four boards away from him. But when Tramp walks over to read what the notice has to say, it's now nailed six boards from where he was just a moment ago. (00:16:40)
