About this Mod

This mod is there for all your shepherd needs!

Move livestock (sheep, cows and chickens) with a crook instead of luring them everywhere! 🐑

Let your canine friends help you by letting them keep your flock together! 🐕

And if you want them to stop, whistle them back to you 😗
You can also whistle to communicate with others or just for fun!

There are whistle commands for "Go" and "Recall"
