Your characters are all 'unique' individuals, with nothing in common other than the stash where they share items. It just doesn't make sense that a pet that is bonded to one of them would even have anything to do with any of the other ones, at least from a game standpoint, shrug.
On top of that, the Shared Stable would be extremely unfair to a a lot of people who have spent time, effort, and/or money to earn pets for their secondary characters.
I've got multiple characters (have to try all the classes you know), and I've had to get the same pet multiple times for each of them. But that was something I understood from the start. If we have a shared stable, how do I get reimbursed for all the time/effort and plat (bought with cash) that I've spent on the 'duplicate' pets I have right now? Plus some of these pets required specials steps to acquire, why should they be shareable with your other characters that have not completed those steps?
Seriously, I would be very ticked off if they came up with a shareable stable right now since there is no realistic/fair way that they can reimburse people who have put in the extra work to get pets for their secondary characters.
Plus I'd rather have the developers spend that coding time on other projects and bug fixes...
