Dolphins and People are the only two who have sex for pleasure.
Did you know that a pigs orgasm lasts thirty minutes, and some lions mate more than fifty times a day. And not to mention, a male rhinoceros can orgasm about thirty times in one mating session.
And homosexuality is found in about 1500 different animals, in varying degrees. Humans seem to be the only species in which there is nonacceptance.

That's a hard one to answer - presumably all reproductive intercourse is pleasurable in some way, even if it only occurs at strictly limited breeding 'seasons'. Otherwise, it seems unlikely that reproductive sex would be very common. Now, assuming that you mean "any animals that have sex for non-reproductive reasons (including primarily for pleasure)", the list narrows down quite a bit. Bonobos and dolphins have been mentioned. There may be others that have just not been observed enough to know. Certainly there are a number of animals that sometimes show same-gender sex; it may be mis-directed mating or it may be for some other purpose - dominance hierarchy, social bonding, some other social purpose or maybe even just for the fun of it. Hard to know. Any of those reasons can also apply to opposite-gender sex as well. There's an awful lot we just don't know about most of the animals on Earth.

There are , I believe more than one, monkeys which use sex as a relaxation any time of the year. Both sexes are apt to make the first move.

Primates certainly do, and using it as a form of establishing dominance is common among them, and dogs, as well.

bonobos do, and females have sex with each other.
