Continuity mistake: When Roscoe puts his nose up to Einstein's for being told to pick on someone his own size, Roscoe snaps back and says "Like you, old man?" But in the next shot, their noses are a couple of feet apart from each other instead. (00:20:55)

Continuity mistake: Right before Tito and Oliver jump out from the side alley onto Jenny's limo, Tito places his arm around Oliver's shoulder. But between shots, the alley's surroundings change dramatically. The sidewalk vanishes, and a garbage pail & drain grate disappear as well. (00:29:40)

Continuity mistake: When the strays are scuffling with one another below the houseboat's deck, Fagin appears through the swinging doors holding a box of dog biscuits in his hands. Both of the doors are in an obvious state of disrepair, with hinges barely attached to the frame. But two shots later, the doors have somehow fixed themselves. (00:17:35)

Continuity mistake: When Fagin is riding his trike through downtown New York with the strays in search of items to help pay off Sykes, Dodger can be seen in the cart with both front paws at his side. But in the following shot his paws are suddenly hanging over the cart's edge. (00:27:15)

Revealing mistake: Right before Dodger walks into Georgette's room in search of Oliver, she talks to herself in the mirror. But at one point the reflection moves when she doesn't. (00:43:10)

Continuity mistake: Near the end, when Tito steers the trolley back down the bridge edge, Georgette looks neat and calm, but a little later on after Jenny hugs Oliver when he wakes up, it cuts to Georgette and her hair is all messed up and she looks petrified.

Continuity mistake: When Fagin sits in his recliner and comes up with the brilliant idea to exchange Oliver for ransom money, a white cloth draped over the recliner's headrest vanishes between shots. (00:48:25)

Continuity mistake: After Oliver and Tito jump onto Jenny's limo, it makes a left turn at the intersection. Here we can see how the limo has a pair of windows on either side, but instead three windows are visible from the interior one shot later where Jenny reads a letter from her parents. In addition, the limo has gained a sunroof between shots. (00:29:45)

Continuity mistake: While talking to Sykes on the pier, Fagin falls into the water. As he walks back inside, water is dripping from his hair and clothes. He then sits in a chair, but there is no water on the floor where he has walked.

Other mistake: Immediately after Fagin deposits Oliver and the dogs on the sidewalk, Oliver has no shadow. Then, a few scenes later, neither Oliver nor Tito have a shadow.

Dodger: All right, you guys. If Mr. Sykes don't see some cold, hard cash, we are Doberman chow.
