Create a DOG!
Your challenge is to create a nonblue creature card with converted mana cost 1. Its creature type must be dog. If any of these rules do not apply to your card, it is invalid. I will anounce the winner in a week unless there are less than 8 entries. Do not make the card OP or it is invalid.

2) Hound is the equivalent creature type that actual magic cards use
3) The words are synonyms, so what's wrong with using the actual card type?
As cadstar369 said, dog is not a creature type, just like dinosaurs aren't. In Magic, dogs are grouped with hounds. Likewise, if you'd like to keep on, we could all just embarrassingly prove you wrong.
There's nothing preventing Wizards from creating a "Dog" subtype, but I do think "Hound" sounds more magical sounding...
True, but they already have Wolf and Hound, so they won't unless it's an unhinged card.

Well, Kor were also in some sets prior to Time Spiral and Zendikar (uh yeah, in the 1990s, almost 20 years before Zendikar), and Wizards had to introduce some creature types to fulfill the storyline for new blocks over the years, i.e. the surrakar and Eldrazi in Zendikar and naga in Tarkir. But yeah, dog and hound are synonymous, and WoTC has already made "dogs," quite obviously in the form of the creature type hound.
MTG Salvation Wiki entry on Hounds:
"Hound is a creature type used for Dogs, Jackals, and canine-like creatures. For gaming reasons, Wolves and Foxes are kept separate."
Anyway, if you want to defy Magic logic, I'll make a dog when Wizards does in a set other than an Un-Set, which Wizards hasn't done after a decade.
