In the Film

Unlike in Happy Birthday, Kit! where Kit and Stirling first encountered Grace, the dog was introduced in the scene where Kit and her mother were strolling downtown. Kit eventually adopted the dog despite her mother initially showing her disapproval. Grace was also named as such when she was introduced in the film, where as in the books it was Aunt Millie who came up with the name.
