Yes, the people at Mojang just need to change the way your dog/cat identifies you. To play while offline if you are on a laptop, just turn off your wifi receiver (usually a button the keyboard). If on a desktop unplug your ethernet cable from the back of the pc tower. Open Minecraft and hit login, then play offline. Your internet dropping out won't make a difference after you login unless you are playing multiplayer.
Reported this issue and it say that it was a copy of this. Thankfully I usually play while offline. Very annoying.
I've done some more research and found that when you login while online you use your normal Minecraft username. When you login while offline it uses your email as your username. Your cat and/or dog follows the player with the username of the person who tamed it. So the fix would be changing how the cat/dog identifies you.
No, Justin Torres. This is still an issue. Don't be scared to make your dogs/cats sit. For example, If you make them sit while online, they will only not stand back up if you are playing offline. Or if you make them sit while offline, they will only not stand back up if you are playing online.
