GC: Hunter Pet Paladin Buffing?

How come our pet getting buffed by paladins revolves around a warrior being in the group? Whatever pally buff a warrior receives our pet receives which is weird but w\e but when there isn't a warrior in the group which happens a lot surprisingly I have to beg paladins to give them kings\might! After awhile it gets annoying.

Just wondering why it has to be done this way because I'm pretty sure when warlocks get kings or w\e it gives the same buff to their pet................

I mean obviously my guild understands my pet needs to be buffed but I think it's an annoyance especially in pugs. They're like lol it's your pet Huntard it doesn't need Kings\Might.

This will not only help hunters but save Paladins some reagents as well....... <3
