    I have several low level pets on whistles and I was going to kill them off to re-use the necklace. Summon my pet and then put him in a fight that causes him to die. Wait the 5 minutes till the ress timer expires then try and remove the whistle to place back in inventory. Get message "Must dismiss pet first". Well...i cant dismiss a pet that is dead and non-ressurectable. I do a quick log out then log in and then I can remove the whistle and the pet name disappears.

    Shouldnt have to log out, whistle should clear when the pet dies and isnt able to be resurrected.

    I will submit this issue to the team for review. Thanks, @brhanson2, for the report.

    Submitting ticket.

    However, for future reference, you can overwrite a whistle's connection by simply taming a creature with a whistle that already has a pet connected to it. You don't need to purge the whistle of a pet via death before you can use it to try to claim a pet over the existing one.

    I do not like that feature. I accidentally put my whistle on with my prize pet and tame a creature thinking Im wearing an empty whistle... Not good.

    How about an option to dismiss the pet from the whistle by clicking? Or even a popup "Whistle contains pet, are you sure you want to kill him" :)
