I'll toss "Dogs" into the hat. I LOVE the rune hounds, but I hate how tiny they are. I really wish they were closer to their wild sizes. The detail on their bodies is just too good to be shrunk down like that.

I'm a fan of bigger pets. I want my companions to be big, able to protect me, maybe even give me a ride(even though it's not possible in game I do sort of imagine my character bonded with her pets enough to get a ride while out doing quests or just general hunting.)

Agreed %100! I can't stand small pets. The downside to playing an Orc Huntress is that I tend to dwarf a lot of my pets and I hate that. If we can't get these pets resized, we should get a Glyph that will make them BIGGER! I don't get why we got a glyph that makes them a pixel smaller -___-

Call me crazy, but I think silithid colossi and devilsaurs should be even bigger than they already are. Add dire horns to that list too, as they seem small for a dinosaur. I mean, in the wild those things are HUGE, tamed they aren't even 10% of their wild size. It just removes something from their identity, IMO.

Devilsaurs and Corehounds WERE bigger. They also had booming steps. Negative feedback from non-hunters aside, they tended to clip into things a lot. *remembers the days when Exotics were a new thing and Blizzard was still toying with exactly how big was too big*

As for the rest, most of them I could take or leave. Not the shoulder/head height chimaera though! I severely dislike that some companion pets do that, and it would absolutely be a deal-breaker for me. Said companion pets are rarely, if ever, summoned--and certainly not while doing things where flapping along behind my head would interfere with targeting. *twitch* Arcane serpents are already big enough, as well...they're very long when moving, and if they were any bigger they'd be rediculously long.

TL;DR - Dogs yes, porcupines yes, everything else is either 'meh' or 'no thanks.'

I'm actually with the lot who would like bigger devilsaurs! Just a touch, a tad. They're a bit too similar in size to raptors at the moment, and while I think raptors have a pretty good size as it is, devilsaurs could do with a little more height to differentiate the two families more. Give both a touch of more identity. (I tend to think of designs in silhouettes and such, so it's always bothered me when you compare them side to side next to your hunter. ) Dire horns could be a touch bigger as well.

Not so sure about dogs though, I sort of like my Gnerak (blue runed demon dog) at the size he is because the name is pretty much derived from a sound some bothersome little thing is causing while it's clenching your ankle in it it's jaws. If they ended up making dogs larger, I wouldn't whine though. I prefer the larger pets anyway.

Warp stalkers always seemed about the right size to me. They're pretty long as it is and making them larger might cause problems with that, maybe? At least it never occurred to me that "Hey, my warp stalker looks pretty small" or anything like. If they made them a little larger, I wouldn't mind though.

Personally, I've always wanted cats to be larger! Like a proper giant monster saber cat. Their profile is pretty low so I'd imagine making them a little larger wouldn't cause any major problems. Bears could do with a size increase as well. I've always wanted to keep a bear because I really like bears in general (as well as IRL) but the size bothers me too much, like I'm sending a babby bear into battle.

Direhorns and spiny spiders definitely need to be bigger. Demon dogs should also be slightly larger.

My main is a female Draenei. I dwarf EVERYTHING. I really wish I could control my character's height. I love Draenei women, but I don't like being so tall. According to this, us Draenei women are the second tallest female and fourth tallest over all(not taking into consideration when male Trolls actually stand upright). It might not be that accurate, but still gives an idea. So my little runed demon dog is even smaller looking next to me. I really wish they would have let that glyph in that made pets bigger and not changed it to smaller. Next to my Draenei, I do wish more of my pets were bigger to better fit her size.

Overall, I'd say I'm pretty content with the sizes of most hunter pets. Some could use a slight boost in the growth department I feel, if only to make them more reasonably proportionate and pleasantly aesthetic.

Perhaps we'll see a Glyph of Greater Proportions make its debut someday soon?

Demon dogs are ridiculously dinky and kind of silly looking for how intimidating the model is. At least they should be visually proportionate to wolves or hyenas instead of 'satanic hellpuppy yip yip yip'. It's embarassing.

I want a ferocious demon hound, not Lucifer's Chihuahua.

Devilsaurs, Dire Horns, "cats", Cranes and Porcupines should be bigger! Kibler's Bits, the only pet buff, should last alot longer than a mere 5 minutes!
