Breanni Says:

Prairie dogs are very small — possibly the smallest pets available. I find them to be the perfect size for a gnome like me! Ironically, they’re sold by the tauren, the largest race in Azeroth. I weep for the prairie dogs that are regularly smooshed by clumsy tauren. Come to think of it, I weep for the gnomes that are regularly smooshed by clumsy tauren. Poor Binky...

This pet just doesn't seem to fit as well as the other town pets fit. A Plainstrider or Baby Kodo might have been a better choice.

Despite being one of the easier pets to obtain, I found this one to be one of the cuter pets. The facial grooming is really adorable and fairly frequent, and I rarely see other Alliance players with a prairie dog out. I still commonly have people ask where to obtain it.

admittedly my least favorite pet, it's like a tailless squirrel and I can barely see it, they need to replace this pet with a Kodo Calf, makes alot more sense, and less likely to become roadkill under a Taurens hoof

Of the faction pets, this was the hardest to get as Halpa is well hidden behind some tents. This lend credence that there ARE Tauren Rogues, but they're just so good that we can't see them.

I am pretty sure that this pet is the exact same model of the gopher you obtain in the quest Blue Leaf Tubers. The gopher, however has limited charges, is only available during the quest and is only usable inside Razor Fen Kraul. However... I found the gopher a pain to find. It took me several minutes to discover the path to the vendor... does that make me stupid?

This was the first pet I ever optained, I was a wee tauren druid running around thunderbluff and came upon the vendore(who is well hidden, look hard) , I saved up enough money and bought the cute litle thing. Saddly I deleted that tauren but since then have a made a blood elf who is becoming exalted with the taurens and has a little friend with her that never left my tauren's side ^_^ I love this one it's cute and simple

I only just bought this pet (the city vendors are sneakily well hidden) and haven't had the chance to bring him out yet. I just added the random pet macro though, so he'll get his share of the limelight :)

This is one of those pets you can tell most likely took about half an hour to make. I mean it's like.. 20 polygons total?

A surprisingly rare pet, this guy is hard to spot since he is one of the smallest pets around, I think second only to the strand crawler. I've never played a tauren, but he looks great with my female troll shaman, Shamazon, because of the size difference and of course any pet looks great with a gnome. He is one of my favorites, and there is a RFK quest where you can summon about 4 big ones all at once, which are leveled to you, oddly. If you are level 80 these marmots have 1000's of hp.
