Leash Villager
by Nico4play
Leash Villager lets a player attach a lead to a villager and walk it from place to place, which takes the place of boats for moving villagers.
What it does
A player walks up to a villager and uses a lead on it, and the villager stays attached to the lead until it is released. Moving a villager this way is quicker than taking it across water by boat. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Leash Villager is a Fabric mod for 26.3, built for 1.21.9 – 26.3, and it is not open source, with All rights reserved.
Key features
Leash villagers
A lead can be attached to a villager, so the villager follows the player along the route.
Walk up and leash
Approaching a villager on foot is enough to attach a lead, with no extra command or block needed.
Transport without boats
Villagers can be moved over land and water alike, which avoids the slow trips that boats require.

Very simple mod that allows to leash Villagers, making it easier to transport them instead of using boats or the really slow happy ghast.
