I'm not having any crashes when I use the Wild Shepherd, so it is hard to pinpoint why you are having some. (Maybe some others will write in and can explain if they are also having problems.)
You could try switching from DX9 to DX11 or vice versa (some get crashes with one but not the other). Note that every time you add or delete a mod (check or uncheck it), you should completely exit Banished before going in and playing a game - this prevents some crashes, especially those that occur on exit.
The obvious "fix" is to not use the Wild Shepherd. There are two Stables you can use to produce Domesticated Animals. The bigger red one requires Domesticated Animals to build it. The smaller brown Stable doesn't require them; so you could use the brown one. Or you could just trade for the few you need to build the red one. (One reason to use the red one is that it can make D.A. from more types of grain.)
