Sure, you can order your pet to attack all you want, its that one little mechanic that prevents the targetted Mes'd, Charmed, whatever NPC from being put on your hate list that everyone needs to learn about so they know that there is only one thing preventing their pet from attacking a mes'd mob, and a whole slew of other crap that will cause their pet to attack a mes'd mob anyway.

Btw, I know I mentioned this in an earlier reply, but I want to reiterate.

If your pet gets a DoT put on it, it will reagro over and over again regardless of Mes. Destroy these pets at all costs or ask for a target change.

Now this is some good advice. Thank you.

Along the same train of thought it's up to the pet classes themselves to remind their groups of this and to suggest killing caster/dotting mobs first at all costs. Mistakes happen, of course, but good communication goes a long way.

Also, I am not intending to rouse "fastboy" from his rage fuelled slumber but the whole "Follow or Guard" debate amounts to preference. I understand the benefit of keeping your pet on follow, but I'm situationally aware and don't see the need personally. I just prefer to know where my pet will go to after every fight. Sue me. Never had any complaints from group members (that I know of).
