I have been looking at my pet and I noticed he has like 40 training pts. How do I go about training him?
Find a pet trainer. They usually hang out around the Hunter trainer. It's the same system for teaching your pet as it is for learning new abilities yourself.

One thing you should also know is that pet trainers can ONLY train Growl to your pet -- the only ability you won't find on other creatures.
When you tame a creature, sometimes it will have a skill already learned. Once you see your pet use this skill in combat, you learn the skill and are able to teach it to other animals using Beast Training.
Things I've found on creatures with my Troll Hunter are :
Bite - Good damaging attack, 10 sec cooldown. Crocolisks (All of them seem to have at least rank 1 of this ability)
Claw - Very fast attack, not as damaging as Bite. Scorpiods (Not all of them will have this ability)
Cower - Pet DeTaunt: allows them to lower their threat. Duskbats and Plainsrunners (Not all of them have this ability)
Even though your pet levels with you and it's hard to throw away what you think is a very good pet, you will want to change out your pet periodically so you can learn these skills.

The cat I trained over by Darnassess has cower, and I also tought him growl.
I have Growl at level 3, if I release this cat, will my next pet have growl at level 3, or do I have to teach each pet 1 through # of growl each time; and since I know cower now, can I teach all pets cower? or is it something specific to this pet?
The Thistle Bears outside of Auberdine do a slam move that knocks you to the ground; if you pet one of them, do they keep this skill?
Has anyone found a pet that can heal?

Also in Darkshore...
Bears have the "Claw" ability (Rank 2).
Fledglings also have the "Cower" ability.
and yes, once you "learned" or saw your pet use these abilities you can teach these abilities to your other pets. Just go to your spellbook, train beastery and teach them from there. :)

If you go to the spell list here on Alla's and sort by Category, scroll down to Beast Training and there's the list of pet ablities currently in game.
They are: Bite, Claw, Cower.
Growl isn't on the list, but that's learned from a Trainer.
Please keep posting which beasts have taught you which ability & rank. It's very helpful :)

i currently have
Growl level 3
Claw level 3( lvl 18+ bears in loch)
Bite lvl 3 (big spiders in either ashenvale or loch)
sorry to be blunt but y would u give your pet cower? the whole point of having a pet is so it can take the aggro while u sit back and fire arrows or bullets

For the same reason people actually spell out complete words. Cower would be useful when you don't want your pet to get agro under any circumstances.
Like in a group fighting Elites and the warrior wants agro. If your pet gets it then he dies.

everybody there is no reason to release a pet especially after he has become attached to you and is a good pet. Go and talk to the stable master i forget the price but its either 1 silver or 10 silver for the first pet he holds and 10 gold for the second pet allowing you to have 2 inactive pets and one on you, its good to have ones that can comprimise for example a good water pet land pet and air pet, this will be easy u wont have to train them or lv the etc just pull them from the stable almost like a bank
I have a quick question. My Hunter learned Claw 2 from a thistle bear, added it to the list for teaching my main pet. When I tried to teach it though, it said it wasn't available to that pet (a wolf). Do I need to find something with lvl 1 claw to teach it first, or do wolves not learn claw?

I don't believe wolves are able to learn Claw at all, just as I don't think bears are able to learn Bite, unfortunately. Raptors and Cats are able to learn both.
Here's some skills I found for my pet and the creatures I learned them from:
Bite 4 - Ashenvale - Ghostpaw Alphas (level 28-29)
Claw 4 - Ashenvale - Elder Ashenvale Bear (level 26)

I have a question about the training points. Say you decide to abandon your pet at level 31 which was stupid, but say you did and you want to train another pet. I charmed a turtle and at the time he had -12 training points. How quickly do those build up? Right now my pet is useless cause he cant tank well or deal any real damage? Thanks for any responses.

Listing of what pets can learn what pet skills, at what lvl, and what beast to tame to learn it.
Not already covered : After taming a critter with a new rank of a pet skill, you may have to use the pet in fights for awile before YOU learn the skill. Once you see the message you learned it, you can dump the pet, go to stables, grab your best friend, and teach him/her the new skill.
Hope this helps ( Im sure it did :P ).
Peace

I do not spell good, Now we have that out of the way hehe)
place your pet on pasive, and it will not attack even when hit, unless you tell it to attack.
so in my opion, cowal is somthing I try to avoid. If I tame a best and see this, I will let go. As of now, I have lurned cawl 3 and bite 3, with graw 3, I found that as of today, the lvl 21 bears can learn both cawl 3 and bite 3, and does not have cowl. The bad thing about cowl, you cannot take it off, so the pet will keep casting it, and wasting there "mana" bar, unsteed of using that enegry to hit cawl, or bite. So far the only pet I have found that has this ability, without cowl. I am going to find a rapter around this lvl to compair skills and str/ac "mana" amount ac so on, to see which is better. I like the "look" of the rapter over the bear, but if it has better stats, it is all eye candie, and all I cair about is staying alive. "I have heard that the rapters can learn both these skills as well"

My pet is currently trained with lvl 2 bite. Is it possible to skip training bite 3 to him and just train bite 4? I'm asking this coz I tamed a croc who is supposed to have bite 4, but i'm not gaining this new ability to train somehow.
HunterDawn,
You can turn off autocast cower by right clicking on it. Only useful in rare circustances though, so you are not missing much except in pet selection.

You can skip levels as long as your pet is of the level to learn the new skill. As for learning skills from pets, the quickest way to pick it up is to be close by the pet when it uses it. Usually when I get a new pet I melee with it on a couple mobs to see if I'm going to learn anything from it.

Cats can claw and bite for sure. Pretty sure raptors can, as well.
