Spoilers ahead
Chance, narrated by Michael J. Fox, is an immature American Bulldog who treats his human family with a casual shrug, showing little interest in his owner Jamie Seaver Kevin Chevalia or the idea of belonging to a family. He shares the house with Shadow Don Ameche, a wise old Golden Retriever owned by Jamie’s brother Peter Burnford Benj Thall, and Sassy Sally Field, a pampered Himalayan cat owned by Peter and Jamie’s sister Hope. That morning, their mother Laura Burnford-Seaver Kim Greist marries Bob Seaver Robert Hays. The wedding cake is devoured by Chance in front of all the guests, a mischievous act that foreshadows the chaos—and loyalty—that will follow.
