The healthiest of the Direhorns. This one comes in many breeds so be careful what you chose. H/H with 1766 health will be daunting for many opponents to take out, couple that with the superb Trihorn Shield. Otherwise you can go for 289 power or 281 speed and still have around 1500 health. Even after 5.4 nerf Direhorns are very powerful pets. Primal Cry with both damage and slow is great. Then you got a priority move and a move that can stun. Or surprise with Stampede! Great pet.

From what I've seen of this little fellow is that he hits like a truck for the H/P breed.

Sure, this little dino is a tough fighter in battle.

 

But even if he was useless I would still adore him.. he is CUTE!

 

I love how, if I stand still too long, he will run around me in an impatient circle.  "Come on, come on, there are adventures to have!"

 

Of all my pets this is the only one that regularly has people whispering me to comment on his cuteness.

This cute little guy does seem to have an animation..  when I was mounted, it started to run circles around my mount! 

 

I'm going to keep him out for awhile to confirm this behaviour, that it wasn't just my imagination  :).

Finally got mine after killing my guess would be 40+ and this little one is so cute. While sitting in 2 moons she went on a little rampage around the circle leaving a dust trail. Haven't battled with the cutie yet but from the list of abilities this one is going to be a beast. I have named mine Tinyhorn, gose well with my hunter's direhorn named Shieldhorn. She is currently lvl 9 and she is a monster, Primal Cry+Horn Attack is a NASTY combo and finish with Trihorn Charge.

Figures, after farming bones since December, and killing more of the Direhorns and the Hatchlings than I could ever count, I break down and buy two on the AF for 100 Gold each.  Farm tonight and 2 of these drop in my first 5 kills.  Really?  My Hubby is still laughing at me, LOL.

for all those asking which the best breed is, i would recommend a h/s breed. this means, along with primal cry, that you will almost always be first, allowing your Horn Attack to stun the opponent against all enemies except flying pets (which you wouldn't want to use a direhorn against as all its abilities are beast)

This little one have an extra animation apart from idling, he sometimes runs off into a circle, leaving a trail of dust behind him as he does so.

Finally gave up on farming one of these and went to the auction house. Someone had a lvl 1 up for 60g, and it was an H/H. :D

If you have any pet that can cast DOTs like a Unborn Val'kyr(yes, I know it is a annoying pet... if you don't have one yet:P) or Senjin Fetish you can swap to this pet and cast Shield and Stampede.

The Direhorn Runt is one of my favorites. I love that he will wander around in a circle if you stand still long enough.

I had 8 drop today.  2 H/H and about one of every other breed.  I'm gonna keep the H/H and level and sell the rest.  She can be a backup tank pet.  I was farming bones for my mount, which I also completed today.  I still have to get the 1k bone pet but another day.

Husband helped me farm for this cutie the first week of 5.3. Took several nights farming for about 30 minutes to an hour each time. We would skip nights where competition was too annoying (had people who would stand too close and cause our mob to charge them and possibly pull more in the process.) If you farm as well, please be considerate of others. Can confirm its idle animation; I squealed very loudly the first time I saw it! :)

I'd also like to confirm the reports that he idles by making a dusty circle around you. He's done it when I'm mounted AND dismounted, so I guess that's his official idle animation. He breaks into this behaviour sometimes even if you stand stillf or only 1 second, and it can cause him to fall behind and despawn.

800 bones (roughly 95 Direhorn Hatchling kills) later this guy finally dropped, did manage to get a primal egg drop as a bonus. Happy Hunting and good luck to all!

My experience is about 1 hr of farming with 25 to 35 kills for one. I am working on trying to get my second right now.

 

I went back and farmed more bones. Taking into account bones from when I originally started and assuming an average drop rate of 8 bones per kill for a direhorn hatchling. It works out to a drop rate for me of 1 in 26.

There are few pets that I could describe as 'cute', but this little guy is one of them.  Dropped while farming bones for the mount; a lot of kills but since I'm only 10% of the way towards the mount, not too bad.
