Please read before suggesting cards:

This deck is intended for Tribal Wars; a casual MTGO format in which at least a third of your deck must be creatures that share a single creature type. There are no sideboards.

I'm also on a very tight budget so the cheaper the better; anything above 1 MTGO ticket per card is too much unless it would have a big impact as a singleton in the deck and/or it would be useful in several of my decks.

Thanks for checking out my deck and I greatly appreciate suggestions and +1s.

Woof woof, pant pant! Yay, it's a bunch of adorable puppers! And they're adorably chewing your face off! The cutest!

Red Deck Wins of the 8-whack variety; the deck just wants to dumps as many dogs into play as quickly as possible and then play a Goblin Bushwhacker or Reckless Bushwhacker to win on turn 3 or 4, maybe using a little bit of burn to remove opposing blockers or deal the last few points of damage. The deck is intentionally 62 cards as, due to rounding, it allows a slightly higher ratio of off-tribe cards.

Goblin Bushwhacker/Reckless Bushwhacker - Sort of the glue that holds the whole deck together; turns a bunch of dorks into an incredibly dangerous fighting force and just wins games out of nowhere.
Isamaru, Hound of Konda - A 1-mana 2/2 with no drawback is pretty great, except the fact that it's Legendary and not are actually huge drawbacks...

Wild Dogs - Awkward as all hell with the fetchlands but it's a 1 mana Hound, which the deck desperately needs.

Goblin Guide - The best off-tribe aggro creature to round out the numbers.

Immolating Souleater - A deceptively fantastic creature; being able to convert my life-total into damage really increases the explosiveness of the deck and ups the number of possible turn 3 wins. That being said, it's pretty awkward in multiples, it's vulnerable to instant-speed removal and in aggro mirrors it can easily end up just being a 1/1 for 2.

Mogis's Warhound - This is where the Hound tribe really starts to be something of a problem; a 2/2 for 2 mana with a drawback is not really what a aggro deck wants but it's not horrible and the bestow ability is occasionally relevant. Also, getting to play with puppies is totally worth the cost of running some slightly under-powered creatures.

Ashmouth Hound - Basically everything I said about Mogis's Warhound applies here too; not a good creature but it woofs so it makes the cut.

Burning-Tree Emissary - Increases the explosiveness of the deck and provides a way to surge a Reckless Bushwhacker with only 2 lands out.

Lightning Bolt - A tried and true burn spell; it just doesn't get more efficient than this.

Fireblast - 4 damage for 0 mana is an unbeatable ratio and it helps to surge a Reckless Bushwhacker, although it's naturally not good to draw in multiples.

With Amonkhet, WotC reintroduced the Jackal tribe and gave it both Jackal Familiar and Jackal Pup, which stole them away from my glorious puppers, so now the deck has been reformed in a much worse Naya form with a way less stable and more expensive mana-base. Curse you, WotC!
