7	!!This comic provides examples of:
8	* AffectionateNickname: Lollipup and her girlfriend Liz love to give these to each other, Lollipup calls Liz "Bubalah" and Liz calls her "Curly Fries."
9	* ALizardNamedLiz: A literal example with Lollipup's girlfriend, Liz.
10	* ArtEvolution: The art style was much rougher when the comic first started. Shown [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/b1b421123861b11b364b0009fdd5cd6c/tumblr_o4xektHIlj1tnvkf7o1_640.png here]].
11	* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: The reason why Lollipup usually tends to take Lemonhead's [[IncrediblyLamePun sour]] disposition in stride; Lemonhead [[SacredHospitality gave Lollipup food and shelter during a storm]], and ever since, Lollipup has been a loyal friend to her.
12	* BerserkButton: Lollipup hates being called big-nosed. Lemonhead knows this and does it on purpose to annoy her.
13	* BilingualBonus: Liz sometimes talks in Spanish, since English is actually her second language. Lollipup will occasionally speak in German and Yiddish, as well.
14	* ButchLesbian: Liz the iguana is a punk rocker and Lollipup's girlfriend.
15	* TheCaretaker: Lemonhead, who is an adult, is sometimes portrayed as something of a ParentalSubstitute towards Lollipup, who is a teenager and seems to think of Lemonhead as a CoolBigSis. Given that Lollipup was homeless before they met, Lemonhead has a bit of a protective streak towards the pooch.
16	* CatDogDichotomy: Lemonhead and Lollipup are a dog and a cat, respectively, and are foils to each other. Lemonhead is grumpy, sarcastic, and the comic's OnlySaneMan. Lollipup is an energetic, peppy, and somewhat obnoxious standard poodle puppy.
17	* CatsAreMean: Lemonhead is usually abrasive, sarcastic, and rude.
18	* CatsHateWater: Downplayed. Even though she is part plant, Lemonhead [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/152664339390/lems-may-be-half-plant-but-shes-also-half-cat does not react well]] when getting water thrown at her. However, she enjoys [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/177312320225/that-one-jerk-roommate-who-always-makes-their relaxing bubble baths]] sometimes.
19	* CuddleBug: Lollipup loves giving hugs, much to Lemonhead's chagrin.
20	* CuteButCacophonic: Lollipup is an adorable poodle, but she is rather loud, with a terrible singing voice.
21	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Lollipup comes from an abusive home, and Lemonhead got her ear bitten off by a dog.
22	* DogStereotype: Averted. Even though she is a poodle, Lollipup is far from being posh, and is rather a lovable goofball.
23	** PlayedForLaughs with [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/176484725095/lemonheadandlollipup-somewhat-inspired-by-this Pascal and Jacques]], two very stereotypically French bichons.
24	* FemaleFelineMaleMutt: Lemonhead and Tofu.
25	* GenkiGirl: Lollipup. And how!
26	* GoodParents: Liz and Lemonhead's parents, on the rare occasion that we see them.
27	* HiddenDepths: In contrast to DreadfulMusician Lollipup, Lemonhead has a very beautiful singing voice, but she [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/170952001875/shes-embarrassed doesn't like]] being heard singing.
28	* InterspeciesRomance: Both Liz and Lollipup and Lemonhead and Tofu.
29	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite being quite rude and mean sometimes, Lemonhead has her heart in the right place and really cares about her best friend. Although she spends a lot of time teasing Lollipup, she'll comfort her when she's upset, and takes care of her when she's sick.
30	* LipstickLesbian: Lollipup is a lesbian, and very feminine.
31	* MalignedMixedMarriage: Subverted. Liz, a Mexican, Catholic iguana, is in a [[InterspeciesRomance relationship]] with Lollipup, a Jewish poodle. After Lollipup and Liz get [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/179192354075/long-overdue-sequel-to-the-comic-i-did-for-lgbt married]], Liz [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/181004681665 takes Lollipup to Mexico to introduce Pup to her parents]]. Lollipup is worried that Liz's parents won't like her, but Liz's HippieParents end up ''adoring'' Lollipup, with Liz's mother insisting that Lollipup call her "Mom."
32	* MasculineFeminineGayCouple: Lollipup and Liz.
33	* MinimalistCast: While there's presumably a few characters outside of the main cast, they're relegated just to being mentioned or shown in flashbacks. The only characters we frequently see are Lemonhead, Lollipup, Liz and Tofu
34	* MellowFellow: Liz is a laid-back, friendly iguana.
35	* NiceGuy: Tofu is an affable and amiable shiba inu.
36	* OddNameOut: Of the four main characters, Tofu is the only one whose name doesn't start with an "L."
37	* PinkMeansFeminine: Lollipup is by far the girliest of the cast, and she has pink fur due to eating a lot of strawberries. Parodied when [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/71525375613/weird-older-comic Lemonhead eats a strawberry]] and gains a pink color, longer eyelashes and other tertiary sexual characteristics.
38	* QuirkyCurls: Lollipup's curly ears mimic this. When drawn as a human, Lollipup has this hairstyle.
39	* RedOniBlueOni: Lollipup (red) and Lemonhead (blue).
40	* ShownTheirWork: In one comic, [[InformedJudaism Lollipup]] claims that [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/178559474280/lemonheadandlollipup-imp dogs are exempt from kosher dietary laws]], which is [[TruthInTelevision true]], and cites a passage from the Torah. However, the actual passage is 22:31, not 22:30 as she claims. Though given that it's [[TheDitz Lollipup]] making this claim, the error might have been intentional on the author's part.
41	* ThroughHisStomach: A platonic example occurs when Lemonhead and Lollipup [[http://lemonheadandlollipup.tumblr.com/post/174023734610/lemonheadandlollipup-this-is-the-longest-comic first meet]]. Lemonhead gives Lollipup some tea when the latter has a bad dream- and Pup repays her by making her breakfast the next morning. After this, Lemonhead seems more willing to talk to her.
42	* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Liz is a butch lesbian, but is almost as sentimental and demonstrative as Lollipup. She has an unashamed love of cute things and wears her heart on her sleeve.
43	* TownGirls: Liz (Butch) Lollipup (Femme) and Lemonhead (Neither.)
