Pet question

Hey,
Ive been training my Moa in hope of it being Dire ive been taking all the damage and letting it deal more damage than me as i read in a post, its at level 11 at the momment and its evolved into an Agressive strider - can it still evolve to dire or should i ditch it?

Also - Say it switches to dire at level 15 is that the training complete or could it still switch to something else :/

All you will EVER need on pets is here:

The Pet Guide

keep doing what your doing, to achieve dire, at lvl 15-16 you'll see the change. um i belive that dire is the final stage, for dire pets, but of course keep lvl'ing it up to 20 and your good to go.

thanks alot

and can i just say great pet choice Soon the Moa and Strider owners shall rule Tyria! Mwahaha... wait.. i said nothing, you hear? *glare*
