Just find some way for it to get the Share Spell ability. Then you should be able to do it.
The blinking is a supernatural ability. I don't believe share spell would work.

If the rider had some other way to Dimension Door (or teleport) himself (spell, cape of the mountebank, Horizon Walker ability, etc.), I'd allow him a readied action to Blink along with the dog and thus remain mounted. It could at least make for an interesting mounted NPC.

Well, this thread has inspired me, Monster advancement time. [sblock=Warp Wolves, Advanced blink dogs] Note: If you don’t use the Improved Toughness feat, switch the feat to power attack. You might want to switch it anyhow since these puppies have to hit to spare.

COMBAT
These warp wolves strike first at the pack’s quarry, using combat expertise while attempting to trip their foes. One the foe falls, the other pack members strike at the downed foe. As soon as the target is killed, one of the warp wolves dimension doors away with the prey, breaking line of sight with the prey’s pack at first opportunity.

Blink (Su): A warp wolf can use blink as the spell (caster level 8th), and can evoke or end the effect as a free action.
Dimension Door (Su): A warp wolf can teleport, as dimension door (caster level 8th), once per round as a free action. The ability affects only the warp wolf, which never appears within a solid object and can act immediately after teleporting.

Once the harassers trip a victim, these warp wolves end their delay action and attack the tripped foe. Often dimension dooring to where it can charge into a flanking position.

The Alphas of the pack are the largest and strongest of their breed. They almost always use combat expertise and always attempt to trip their foes.

a teleport spell could take 6 of the seven party members, if one kills themself another party member could carry them as gear, rather than having them count as another creature. Raise the person the next day.

*chuckle* The D&D equivalent of the scene at the beginning of "The Transporter".
