Can you prevent your pets attack?

When my Beastmaster trys to pull with a bow, how can you not have your pet attack. Almost everytime, my pet body blocks the pull. Some may want that, but I would like to change my pets target or cancel it quickly.

It would be nice to have, oh maybe a clickable cancel attack on the charm animal skill button? Since its not doing anything but taking up space when equiped.

For one, when equipping charm animal brings your pet with you, so I'd say it does a lot. And to not have your pet attack, fire one shot at the enemy and immediately retreat before the arrow hits. I do this and have no problem with my pet attacking the enemies.

Unfortunately, at the moment I believe there is no way to prevent your pet from attacking. I know the flag system doesn't effect your own pet (a hero's pet will follow them if you flag the hero.. but if too close they will attack if the hero decides to attack).

Edit - I'll have to try that shoot and run method... that does work to drag henchies off critter's (most times).. so should work with pets. cheers.
