The pets aggro radius is microscopic. I tested this once with my tiger, KoKo. The Allliance Outriders in the South Barrens had just ridden by, and I had heard that the aggro for pets was smaller... so I popped on Eyes of Beast and was able to run literally at the heels of their mounts without drawing aggro. Normally, that bunch will aggro between 10 and 20 yards (very rough estimate).
I suspect, from that test and other places where I've used KoKo to scout, that the hunter's pet is a very strong tool to solo pull in very tight spots. I'd encourage any high level group with a better than average hunter to test this out... just be prepared to be wiped if the pet, even while on passive, decides to go exploring... gotta get that bug fixed... :blink:
