I imagine this is working as intended. Splash damage potions (another AOE attack) also hit everything nearby, regardless of whether friendly or not.

@Brian and Roy
This is an issue that should be fixed, as it hinders you in fights when around pets or Wolves/Pigman, which something that was made to help you now hurts you sometimes.

In those situations, you can switch to an axe for combat.
