Plot: The Newton family from the first two Beethoven movies are on vacation in Europe, but do plan to join a Newton family reunion, and to make sure one of their family members definitely makes it, they ship him to travel to the reunion with George Newton's brother Richard. Guess which family member it was? That's right, Beethoven! The giant dog follows Richard Newton and his family of a nagging wife and two bratty kids, as they hit the road to California in a huge, shiny, and expensive RV, equipped with a DVD player. Following them, are two bumbling crooks who have hidden some secret codes on a DVD that they figure no one in the world will buy, but someone does: Richard. So now they have a DVD holding top secret information, and the crooks must get it back.
Alternative Plot: When George Newton and his family go on a European vacation, their St. Bernard, Beethoven, is unable to go on the trip. Instead, the Newtons arrange for George's brother, Richard (Judge Reinhold), to watch the rambunctious, gigantic pooch. With a road trip already planned, the RV becomes a bit more cramped when Beethoven joins Richard and his wife (Julia Sweeney) and kids (Joe Pichler, Michaela Gallo). But unknown to them, the family has a few more additions to the journey: two crooks.
