i've notice that the horses, cats, and dogs are not teleporting with my player when i use /home or /warp or any other teleporting commands. used to,back when i played in 1.64, the dogs and cats would tp to you if you moved too far away from them. now they just sit there and stay there until you come back and then start following you. the horse will also stay behind if i tp home.
is there anything to do to fix this, or is this how it's supposed to be now?
i'm playing in a 1.8 spigot server.

Horses have never teleported, as there's no way to make them sit (you can attach them to a fence via leads, but those don't work very well). Wolves (dogs) and cats, they changed something in 1.7 or 1.8 so they don't teleport if you move too quickly (such as /home or /warp, or just general running around). I'm not sure if it's a bug or feature (seems like a bug, getting wolves or cats anywhere without a nether portal is impossible now and no one was complaining about it before), but I'd imagine it's been brought to Mojang's attention at this point.
I know people were complaining about their wolves teleporting to them randomly while caving and whatnot, so perhaps this was intended to fix that behavior? Regardless, even if you leave a pet standing and move too far away too quickly, it won't teleport to you, which seems like it shouldn't be intended behavior.
I agree completely, I never had a problem with sitting pets teleporting to me randomly and nothing ever seemed broken to me, so I'm not sure why they changed anything. But for the time being I suppose portals and nether tunnels are the best way to transport animals, possibly with leads to make sure they keep up. Hopefully Mojang will fix this though!

still, it's super annoying not to be able to bring home animals that you find that are rare. i would love to be able to breed some keetuhs again.

THE KITTY HAST BEEN RESURRECTED, AND LIVES ONCE MORE!
Also, cats and dogs won't teleport to you if the chunk they're in gets unloaded before they can teleport to you.
