Plot hole: When Fluffy saves Chloe she calls out 'thank you Fluffy'. Cruella never told her the dog's name so how did she know it?

102 Dalmatians (2000)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Kevin Lima
Starring: Glenn Close, Ioan Gruffudd, Gerard Depardieu, Eric Idle, Tim McInnerny, Alice Evans
Continuity mistake: When Cruella (Glenn Close) gets turned into a cake, the dogs squirt coloured icing all over her face. A few seconds later she falls against a glass door with her face, and red icing is smeared all over her right cheek as she slides down the glass. In the next cut the arresting officers are taking her into custody, and she has a neat yellow blob of icing on the same cheek, and all the smeared red icing is gone.
Waddlesworth: Gaw, I just realised I'm not a rottweiler after all! I'm a retriever.
Question: Is there a reason why Roger, Anita, and their child are not back for this sequel? Also, how and why did Dipstick get adopted by Chloe?
Answer: We are never told why they are not there and we are not told about how Dipstick came to live with Chloe.

Answer: Because Jeff Daniels and Joely Richardson who portrayed Roger and Anita were busy filming other projects at the time and maybe they chose not to return. Or perhaps the writers couldn't find a way to fit them into the Story. As to how Dipstick got adopted by Chloe, maybe it's just a mystery we'll never know.
