As the title suggests the pet filter needs fixing.  
for example i just searched pvp and the filter showed no results.

Phrasing it more precisely, when you use the text search box on a Troop or Weapon, the search includes spelltext, Traits and Talents, but the same _does not_ apply to using the text search on Pets.

When you use a text search on Pets, apparently the following fields get searched:

- Pet name
- Pet color
- Pet bonus (if any)
- Pet type (Loot, Event, etc)

The following fields are NOT searched:

- Acquisition method text (Faction Renown, PVP shop, Pet Gnome, etc)  
_Note that upon acquiring a Pet, this text is replaced with simply “you rescued this Pet” making it useless for search purposes_
- PVP region description (e.g. “only applies in Summer isle”)

Personally, I think the PVP specific bonus should be added as an option to the dropdown list for “Pet Type”, because this box filters by pet _effect_ and not the type listed on the Pet’s card (e.g. Color Team bonus and Kingdom Team bonuses, which are searchable separately, are both typed as “Buff Pet”).

You can rename your PVP pets with the tag “PVP” or something similar as a temporary solution. So by typing PVP in the search bar you will find your PVP pets
