* FriendToAllLivingThings: Gerry. He usually allows his troublesome dog Nutley to accompany him on jobs and, in one episode, takes a pair of giraffes back to the main office so they will be safe until Boss Bear can arrange for them to be taken to the zoo.
Added DiffLines:
** A gender inversion with the male drivers. Gerry is a kind hearted animal lover who is easily scared, and surprisingly good at ballet (femme). Jacko is rather blunt and a lot more boisterous due to him being an avid football player (butch). Wilson is also an avid footballer like Jacko but also loves music and ballet (neither).

* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Most of the bears share the same characteristics, save for the butler Groan (who has his ears slicked back), a conductor named Maestro (who has a mane) and one of the players from the opposing football team (who is significantly larger and bulkier, and enough to intimidate Gerry into not kicking the ball)

* ChekhovsGun: The raw eggs Gerry brings with him in "Rosie's Day Out". When they realize they have to camp for the night, they are the only food they have available so Rosie offers to cook them up.

** "Dusty's New Sports Car" puts the focus on Dusty, the company secretary.
** "Rosie's Day Out" puts more of a focus on Rosie as the bears invite her out on their day off.
** "Boss Bear's Barbeque" Focuses more on Boss Bear and his rather demanding wife.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: One-shot character Miss Weirdly, the eccentric owner of Weirdly Grange. She drives to her holiday home Cherry Tree cottage with the handbrake on and parts of her car fly off when she arrives. Her butler, Groan (who accidently got shut in the wardrobe the bears were transporting) considers it a relief when he gets to ride in a more carefully driven truck than his mistress's car.

* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: The shirts on the three male drivers make it easier to tell them apart. Gerry wears sky blue, Jacko wears purple and Wilson wears pink.
* CoolCar: Dusty's sports car in its titular episode. It's not so cool looking once the boys have examined it to find what is making it squeak.
* FailedASpotCheck: Boss Bear complains he cannot find the teabags. Dusty tells him they are on the shelf- in the jar marked teabags.
* ForgottenBirthday: None of the other bears remember its Bella's birthday until Rosie, and then later Dusty, point it out. What results is Bella ending up having two parties on the same day as her colleagues and, later, her boss doing their best to make it up to her.
