[GAMEPLAY] Potential Bug With Kindred

While playing Kindred in League of Legends there I noticed what may have been a bug (or intentional game mechanics). After about 10 minutes of game (or 6+ stacks of Mark of the Kindred) Kindreds passive marked the Rift Herald, and no matter how many times the Herald is slain after the passive no longer changes to any other jungle monster staying on the Herald/Baron for the remainder of the game. I don't think that is the way her passive was intended to work (but i could be wrong).

In addition to the above if the Mark of the Kindred is applied to other epic monsters such as the Herald and Baron why does the mark never apply to the dragon? As a monster with a faster spawn rate (and the stacking buffs) would it not give more incentive to both teams to try and take the dragon?

After 6 stacks of Mark of the Kindred are gathered Wolf's part of her passive (marking jungle monsters) only works on Baron/Rift Herald. This is too prevent a snowballing Kindred from double dipping in stacks to get even further ahead (so an ahead Kindred can't both kill enemies for stacks and continuing farming jungle monsters for stacks).
