I am surprised nobody has yet mentioned, Led Zeppelin's Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp. It's not just kinda zooish. it's Page singing about his beloved companion, Strider. Many people think he's saying "There's no companion like a blue-eyed girl", but it's "blue-eyed merle" that he's saying.
Lyrics such as these and others, it's a very touching song and easily one of my very favorites. I can sometimes get a little choked up listening to it.
./~ Hear the wind within the trees, telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me ./~
./~ Ah can your love be so strong. When so many loves go wrong. Will our love go on and on and on? ./~
./~ Tell your friends all around the world. Ain't no companion like a blue-eyed merle ./~
./~ Yeah, ain't but one thing to do. Spend my natural life with you. You're the finest dog I knew, so fine. ./~
If that isn't a love song, I don't know what is.
