I don't know if anyone has seen 'My Dog Tulip' - originally a largely autobiographical book by J.R Ackerly, made into a lovely animation. A British guy in the 50s who works for the BBC and gets a female German Shepherd. They are very clearly deeply in love, and the book hints yet further, and in interviews Mr Ackerly admits to 'a little fingerwork' when his dog was in heat.
