Does a sufficiently strong dispel/dismiss magic targeted at the control/command spell on a controlled/commanded creature remove that control? What do folks think will result? The creature will continue to carry out it's last command until completed, or vanish back to wherever it came from, or turn in wrath on the caster of the control spell? Currently we're playing it that it dispels the control and the creature makes the best exit available to it. I imagine, if it *does* work, that casting a protection spell on the same creature would work as a 'soak', unless the caster knew the exact type of control/command spell used... whether spirit or divine, whether control salamander (for instance) or control cult spirit... (one can only target a spell specifically when one knows what it is)... Thoughts?

Most creatures without INT will leave. Those with INT will have different responses depending upon many circumstances (i.e. get revenge, etc.) <> Like I said it really depends and sometimes the creature will still floow the casters orders (if say it is a cult spirit, it is helping a follower of that cult, and is in no danger of being destroyed) <> I reward the ones who take those spells (mostly Tricksters for some reason) with the fact that if they are targeting a "control/command/dominate" spell, that it does not matter which type it is. << Thoughts? >> Not many this time of nite.

Familiars are tools of the GM that occasionally are an aide to the players, too. They are a fantastic mode for comic relief from tense situations.
