On another Studied combat note, is the bonus to damage from studied combat considered Sneak Attack Damage? I know that it is considered Precision Damage but I want to know if it is wrapped up into the same category as Sneak Attack.

Good afternoon, I am currently playing a Hunter in the Serpents Skull campaign and have a Quetzalcoatlus as an animal companion.

Starting Statistics
Size Medium; AC +2 natural armor; Speed 30 ft., fly 50 ft. (clumsy); Attack bite (1d8); Ability Scores Str 9, Dex 21, Con 10, Int 2, Wis 14, Cha 12; Special Qualities low-light vision, scent.

9th-level Advancement
Size Large; AC +3 natural armor; Attack bite (2d6/×3), 2 wings (1d4); Ability Scores Str +8, Dex –2, Con +4; Special Qualities razor-sharp beak.

From what I can understand, his natural armor bonus in total at 9th level would be +2 (starting base) +3 (9th level advancement) +6 (9th level natural armor bonus)= 11 (total for a 9th level Quetzalcoatlus.
My DM says that the starting base and 9th level advancement do not count for his armor. He says the reason for this is that it is an advanced animal companion but I can not find anything on advanced animal companions.
