My very first huntard question

Which is:
I understand that to learn certain pet skills, you have to tame a pet with that skill.
What I'd like clarification on:
Does taming the pet automatically teach you any unique skills it has?
Or does it make that skill available to buy at a pet trainer?
Or is there something you have to do with the pet itself to acquire the skill?
Pretty much, the instructions I'm finding say 'tame new pet; learn new skill; teach new skill to older pet (if applicable)'. But the 'how' part of the hunter learning the new skill seems to be missing...

Thanks, BTW. :)

I'm still tweaking the macro. I can't get the 'pat/pet' action to work (I think I'm missing brackets around Elder's name or something), and Ari just emotes in the general direction she's facing when she talks to him (Which looks silly), so I don't use the macro often, anyway. If I could figure out how to get her to just target Elder and pet him, that would be great, but it ain't happening.

That's all you need. Copy that as it is into a clean macro and it should do the job. Ari won't turn to face him, but it will say something like "Ari gently pats Elder."
