Like the top poster I'm no big fan of a modern deck that is pushed into legacy-legality by only one card. As you are working with many enchantments I would change from "Spidersilk Armor" to e.g. "Ethereal Armor"

Also you want this deck to be an aggressive deck thus cards like "Fog"/ "Holy Day" (If you want to use a fog effect go for "Moonmist") should be put into the sideboard. The same is true for cards that have rather high mana-costs or are used in longer games, like "Privileged Position".
The free slots could then be used for some pump/ protect spells like "Ranger's Guile" or "Vines of Vastwood". If you really want some protection use color protection spells like "Apostle's Blessing" or "Emerge Unscathed". Those spells enable you to withstand burn and targeted descruction spells and (if played on your turn) make the creature unblockable for all your opponents creatures with the chosen color.

Another interesting option could be "Mayor of Avabruck". In his human form he's pretty unspectacular. But when flipped he provides all your wolves with a +1/+1 buff and produces a 2/2 wolf token every turn.

You should also rework the manabase a little bit. At the moment you're using 47 green /27 white mana smybols. I would reduce the number of plains a little bit and use more forests. Also you should add some more duallands because double mana-costs can be a little bit tricky to pay with just basic lands.

Thank you for your constructive criticism, the overall goal of this deck was to make the wolves very hard to destroy and in casual play with my friends the manabase never occured to be a problem. Also, my friends seem to use a lot of flying creatures that's why I included "Spidersilk Armor". I like the idea to be able to block anything comming my way.

And "Mayor of Avabruck" would work well in a Wolf token deck which is next on my list to make!

EDIT: I also like the idea of "Moonmist"

In my opinion there are two ways of optimizing this deck: Adapting it to a have good chances against all decks (which means a proper sideboard) or making it efficient against your friends decks. From my experience it's better to go for the first option because if you have a deck that wins 10 out of 10 games it will become boring for your friends rather fast and they might stop playing with you (or against that actual deck)

Flyers are normally rather slow and weak but hard to remove with only creatures...they are the typical pain in the ass you can't ret rid off easily. So there are 3 ways of dealing with them: Block/ kill them with creatures, destroy them with spells or be faster than your opponent. From my experience it's always better to put some pressure on your opponent and force him to react to your plans than just to sit there and react to his.

As for "Spidersilk Armor", you might want to take a look at "Spider Umbra". It's no global buff for your creatures but it gives +1/+1 instead of +0/+1 and it provides the enchanted creature with 'Totem Armor'

Spider Umbra would be very good :) I will replace Spidersilk Armor with Spider Umbra!
