Pet levels & the labyrinth

[Ukase]

Short Version: My suggestion is that pets get the same level shifts as their owner in the labyrinth. 

Longer version:
What I know about pets might fill a thimble for someone with tiny fingers. 
I was in the Font of Malevolence this afternoon, and someone more observant than me asked why their Animate Stone was only +1. 

So, on my controller, a 50+3 Plant/natty, I checked my Fly Trap (Kudzu) 
Not sure why I haven't gotten around to naming the Longbow Lore Pets, but that aside...Kudzu is 50+2. 
Now, for most content, that's fine. And even in the labyrinth, it's okay, I guess...but shouldn't the pet get the same level shifts as the owner?
