Don Ameche nel ruolo di...
Shadow
- Shadow: [after Sassy is lost in the river] I shouldn't have made her come.
- Chance: It's not your fault, she wanted to come.
- Shadow: But it's my responsibility. I had a responsibility to Sassy - to love her and protect her - the same as I have to you... and to Peter. And the same as you have to Jamie.
- Chance: But we didn't ask for this job.
- Shadow: We didn't have to. It's built in. Has been ever since the dawn of time... when a few wild dogs took it upon themselves to watch over man, to bark when he's in danger, to run and play with him when he's happy, to nuzzle him when he's lonely. That's why they call us man's best friend.
- Chance: [narrating] Looking at him that night, he seemed so wise... and ancient, like the first dog who ever walked the earth. I just hope that one day, I can be like him.
- Chance: Look! You've pushed me this far, now I'm pushing you the rest of the way! You know, back there in the woods, even when things looked really bad, I still believed we'd make it because you were too stubborn to quit! I'm not gonna make you quit. Not now. Not when we're this close. Now, try again!
- Shadow: You think it's easy for me to admit I can't do it? I'm too old.
- Chance: That's not true! There's nothing you can't do!
- Shadow: I have nothing more to give, Chance, and it's time for you to be on your own.
- Chance: But I want you with me. I love you, Shadow.
- Shadow: You've learned everything you need, Chance. Now all you have to learn is how to say goodbye.
- Chance: I won't let you give up.
- Shadow: [Shadow watches Chance chase a rabbit] There goes the bunny... There goes the pup... There goes breakfast.
- Shadow: Up and at 'em, you two. I found our breakfast.
- Chance: Good, I hope it's garbage
- Shadow: No, even better.
- Sassy: With you two gourmets, I can just imagine
- Chance: Well fine, just sit here and diet.
- Sassy: Are you calling me fat?
- Chance: Course not, for a hippopotamus!
- [Runs into a tree]
- Chance: I meant to do that!
- Sassy: Ha ha! Serves you right.
- Shadow: [growls at Chance as he noses the turkey]
- Chance: Oh, back off, old man! You were just jealous cos I smelled it first.
- Shadow: Would a rolled up newspaper mean anything to you?
- Chance: No. Why?
- Shadow: [barks]
- Chance: All right! Okay! I just wanted to... smell it.
- Shadow: [barks]
- Chance: ...to make sure it was safe for people.
- Shadow: I'm keeping my eye on you, pup.
- Chance: Yeah, well I'm just gonna go mingle.
- Chance: I can't sleep. I'm too tired to sleep. And this place is spooky. I don't like it here. It gives me the creeps.
- Sassy: Oh, fraidy cat. I mean dog!
- Shadow: You two pipe down and go to sleep.
- [Chance hears a sound and sits up with a start]
- Shadow: Now what?
- Chance: There's somethin' out there.
- Sassy: [trying to scare him] Oooooooohh!
- Shadow: Enough, Sassy. Now sleep.
