@Lix: From the band Heart maybe?
The album's name (Bad Animals) refers to a situation the band encountered at a hotel in Charlotte, North Carolina. Ann Wilson's dog was at the hotel with her, and hotel security informed the band that a North Carolina law made it a crime to bring an animal into a hotel room. The band's tour manager solved the problem by going outside with the dog for three hours
