if you left click growl it will use the talent, which will put it in combat. However if you right click growl, it will be put on autocast and will be used the
next time your pet attacks something.
I believe this is how it works for me. maybe you're left clicking? clicking passive should always bring your pet back to you.
I'll be testing this tonight and will repost to say how it went.
To clarify, is your pet in combat when you turn growl on, or is this before a fight
starts and your pet is beside you? if the latter, try turning growl on without targeting anything.

Last night, I was running SH and my pet was required to off-tank a couple times. Growl is typically off during dungeon fights, so it doesn't pull aggro off the tank. But, when pet off-tanks it needs to be turned back on. Well, after I caused a wipe, I finally realized a problem I've been having. It happens when you turn growl back on...it initiates attack. And, the pet doesn't seem to want to recall once it starts in on the mob.
Maybe I'm just thick, but I swear growl didn't used to
initiate an attack. Does anyone know if this is a recent change? Or, am I just out of it?
So anyway, if you're not already aware of it, be careful about toggling growl when you're prepping for a fight. I finally figured it out, but unfortunately, I probably made hunters look bad in the process.
