Only on some of the slopes and cliffs will this happen. I have been experiencing it with Taunshu and Orion for at least 2 patches now, so it really is not that new. It is not limited to instances and is a matter of how that particular cliff face is set up as to if the pet can have viable but some what obstructed path to follow you down. The obstruction aspect is what makes them seem to float down as the keep getting hung up on the cliffs irregularities and slowed by them. The same invisible irregularites is what slows a following pet down so that they 'lag behind' a fast moving player on what appears to clear terrain to the player (and the fact that the pet is not really following the players path but actually a pursit plot to a point the left and slightly ahead of the player).
