If you cannot supsend that disbeleif just dont Pick a tiger AC until level 6. but with the skills you are a bit out of luck. And i Think that is ok AC is already a powerfull thing.
And the rules for ACs are under druids in the core rule book.

I was doing some quick checks and I found at least one NPC druid's AC listed with what appears to be racial modifiers. But that's not exactly clear in the AC rules.
Tangletooth in Burnt Offerings is listed with Acrobatics +9 (+17 when jumping.) That looks like a racial modifier.
Don't forget that jumping includes a bonus if speed is greater than 30.
In your opinions, would allowing the racial skill modifiers really unbalance the AC? I am the GM, but I am looking for other people's input.
By the way, when I make any rule changes, which I rarely do, I always make them global, not just for a single character.
I think yes ACs are already plenty good. Make a few feats that allow a PC to get better skill on his AC so it will be a Trade of and not just extra power to a already powerfull class.

Darn.... From the title, I thought this thread would be about silly things you could do with your animal companion, especially out of combat tricks.
Trying to distract a crowd by playing "Fetch" with your animal companion while your teammates break down a door.
Having your tiger grapple someone using the "Maneuever (grapple)" trick and then interrogate the villain, while commenting on how you hadn't fed your tiger yet.
Flirting with a guard outside a stall, and asking him if he wants to come pet your tiger while the rest of your group sneaks inside to steal the place blind.
I would love to hear about the silly things other players do with their animal companions.
Hmm

I like this idea.
My PFS druid uses the sling a lot, and he's trained his snake to fetch the sling when he switches to his scythe or a wand. It's quite amusing hearing the GM describe a snake getting the sling onto its back and then slithering up behind me to give it back.
The same druid has also at times carried the snake when in snowy environments to keep the snake warm. My part members where more than a little disturbed by an anaconda slithering out of my druid's coat when we finally made camp in cave in the Realm of the Mammoth Lords.

Yeah, the snake thinks it's awesome too, judging from how the GM describes the immense expression of self-satisfaction on the snake's face every time he does it.
Other ideas that I haven't put into play:
- Having an AC with a really good climb check hang from the ceiling in a meeting room in order to drop on enemies.
- Telling innkeepers that their family pet and my AC got hitched, whether or not it's true.
- Having a Dire Rat, sending them into an evil business-owner's establishment, and then come in, claiming to be a health inspector so I can investigate freely. (Every character I've made has claimed to be a health inspector at some point.)
