Beethoven's back and this time the slobbery Saint Bernard is making it big, Hollywood-style!

Moises Arias stars as Billy, the son of a Hollywood animal trainer. Billy's dad lets him keep llamas and ferrets at home, but no dog! When Billy meets Beethoven in a park, the two become instant friends, but Billy can't keep the 185 pound Saint Bernard a secret for long, so when Billy's dad comes home, it takes a lot of convincing before Billy's allowed to keep him.

Accidental Star

Beethoven goes with Billy and his dad to the movie set where the director casts Beethoven as the star of his upcoming family movie—and Beethoven wasn't even auditioning! Beethoven gets the star treatment—complete with personal assistants, chefs, and a huge trailer all to himself! Beethoven even gets special training from the Dog Whisperer, Cesar Millan! Everything's going well until some bad guys (one played by Joey Fatone from N Sync) plan to kidnap Beethoven and hold the famous dog for ransom.

Bonus Features

Did you know Beethoven is played by three different dogs? Or that Moises had to put baby food on his face to get Beethoven to lick him? Watch the special features and you'll gain access to these behind the scene secrets[/kwlink] and more! See footage of the dogs and their trainers in action in How Did They Do That? and make sure you check out the Dog Whisperer's 3 Secrets to Dog Training. Moises Steals the Show is a great showcase for Moises Arias' fun, vibrant personality—the lead actor brings excitement to the set every day—don't miss the crew's crazy pranks!

The Bottom Line

Beethoven's Big Break is a great new adventure in the popular Saint Bernard series. This time around offers more gags, more outrageous stunts and a charming, kooky cast—and Beethoven is just as slobbery as ever!
