I wouldn't bother with taking a tank pet if you go BM, the early talents will make up the difference easily.

My cat has happily tanked elites of 2-3 levels higher than him without taking any serious damage and cats are about as untanky as pets can be.

I agree, it is easier for a DPS pet to hold aggro [usually] than a tanking pet (present growl bugs not withstanding...) I usually recommend a DPS pet for most new hunters, and it will usually be a good pet to keep to 70 and past for both PvE and PvP...

Might want to mention Mark than one can have up to 3 pets, and something some beginning hunters miss, pets can be trained with various talents. its confusing though [to new hunters], could make a good follow-up article, but should be at least mentioned here.
