* EvilCounterpart: The ''Middle Park Cowboys'' are this to the ''South Park Cows'', being incredibly efficient, ruthless, brutal, and with high expectations; while the latter are childish, bumbling, and are happy with losing by less than 70 points. Middle Park Elementary also seems to be an upgraded version of South Park Elementary, complete with a satellite dish.

** Bill and Fosse are this to Stan. They're all jocks who have a childish view of being gay, but Stan's homophobia comes from a misguided sense of love for Sparky, and he redeems himself at the end of the episode, while Bill and Fosse are actively malicious in their bullying of Stan and Sparky for the latter's homosexuality.



* LovableSexManiac: Sparky may have a tendency to hump every male dog he sees, but he's still a good boy. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as he's a dog.



* VitriolicBestBuds: Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny rip on Stan for having a gay dog, but later help him try to set him straight when they are made to think that gay people are evil, and show worry when he runs away.

* Innocent Bigot: Stan doesn't mean any harm throughout the episode, but his naiveté and poor choice of role models make him susceptible to bigotry.

Added DiffLines:

* AllGaysArePromiscuous: Sparky's EstablishingCharacterMoment is when he starts humping the tough street dog Sylvester.
--> '''Cartman:''' He's not kicking his ass but he's definitely doing ''something'' to his ass.


Added DiffLines:

* ArtisticLicenseAnimalCare: Somewhat justified since the animals are somewhat anthropomorphic (they even dance and go on boat rides), but Big Gay Al's "sanctuary" is a huge house where he keeps lions, rabbits, geese, water-buffalos, turtles, dolphins, dogs, humming birds, and multiple other gay animals from different environments. It doesn't take an expert to realize that cramming all these creatures in such a tight space would realistically be a perfect recipe for disaster, gay or not.


Added DiffLines:

* BrutalHonesty: Mr. Garrison doesn't allow anything to stop him from speaking his mind about a subject, whether it be homosexuality, his newfound favoritism for Stan, or Richard's Stamos' lack of singing prowess.
-->'''Cartman:''' Wait a minute, why the hell does he get an A-?\\
'''Mr. Garrison:''' Eric, Stanley just might lead our team to victory against the Middle Park Cowboys for the first time in decades. And we treat star athletes better because they're better people.\\
'''Cartman:''' That's not fair!\\
'''Mr. Hat:''' Life isn't fair, kiddo, get used to it.


Added DiffLines:

* ContinuityNod: The visitors from ''[[Recap/SouthParkS1E1CartmanGetsAnAnalProbe Cartman Gets an Anal Probe]]'' can be seen cheering for the ''South Park Cows'' with cow-themed hats, mirroring how they made peace with the cows in said episode.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Gayngst}}: Sparky overhears Stan complaining about not wanting a gay dog, so he dejectedly runs away from home, which is how he meets Big Gay Al. He and Stan eventually rekindle their friendship.


Added DiffLines:

** Mr. Garrison is extremely homophobic, unapologetically sucks up to Stan for being the school's quarterback, and bluntly tells Richard Stamos that his rendition of "Loving You" sucks.


Added DiffLines:

* MachoCamp: According to Stan, Sparky is half-wolf and half-doberman. He's also got a very effeminate fashion sense, wearing a pink scarf and at one point a rhinestone collar.


Added DiffLines:

-->'''Mr. Garrison:''' Stanley, gay people... Well. gay people are evil. Evil right down to their cold, black hearts, which pump not blood like yours and mine, but rather a thick, vomitous oil that oozes through their rotten veins and clots in their pea-sized brains which becomes the cause of their Nazi-esque patterns of violent behavior. Do you understand?\\
'''Stan:''' I guess.\\
'''Mr. Garrison:''' Good, I'm glad we could have this little talk, Stanley. Now you go outside and practice football like a good little heterosexual.
