Pet Agro
I've got a level 12 mage and I also pull with my 5pt DD.
My experience is that I mini-nuke a mob and send my pet a second later, to intercept it on the way to me. It works every time, and my pet holds agro, as long as I stay standing. It takes the pet a few swings (maybe it misses the first few times? my log doesn't register my pet's hits when it is more than 10ft away or so), before I can sit again and have the pet hold agro.
I try to set up far enough away from the pet and mob that when I sit, I can tell if the pet doesn't have enough agro to cover my additional sit agro, and I can quickly stand up before the mob gets to me and hits me for full sit damage. As soon as I stand, the mob goes back towards the pet.
