We have big dogs, and their claws will tear up an oak floor after a few years.
When we remodelled we wnt wit a textured Italian ceramic tile that is an earth tone with a complemantary dark grout.
Not a sign of wear from the Dobermans, even in front of the back door. I think the rough surface keeps their nails trimmed too!
An electric heating coil installed under the tile keeps the floor nice and warm.
