Say you accidentally killed off all the animals near your pawn, the only option you have left is to go out and hunt them down or set traps. But what about have some sort of item that will allow you to hit the animal once and have it follow you? This would help when making farms near your spawn. you wont have to build pits or any other type of traps, you can just lead them to your built farm and have them stay there.
I like the idea because it makes more sense with animal farming than digging a hole where animals are stuck. Also it makes the possibility of making shepherd NPCs in 1.9.

People telling you to use something that DOESN'T DO what you want.
He wants mobs to FOLLOW him, Not run away in terror because he put a hook though their faces!
On topic:
I'd suggest a collar made out of leather.
(Mushroom be leather)
Gives you 2 collars.
Slap one on your stock and they follow you everywhere and don't despawn.
