Default Q, simulated wood flooring

I was thinking cork too.
Though it may scratch easer than the simulated wood floor.

Something I have noticed with the simulated wood laminate flooring is that
it has a Formica like quality about it. It's slicker than a wood floor,
harder surface less forgiving. It's said to be very durable but I think it
may be all wrong for your pooches.

They make vinyl flooring that looks a lot like hardwood flooring. You may
have even seen it in yout local retail store. For awhile WalMart had it in
some of their stores.
I think Home Depot carries something along those lines.

I want to put down a look-a-like wood floor in a Florida room. I have
dogs, mostly old, and want a flooring they can walk on with ease
whereas wood has a tendency to slip out from under them. I guess what
I’m asking for would be a simulated flooring that is somewhat soft.
I’ve seen some in Home Depot that looked very realistic, but not sure
of the brands. Any help from those that used products of this type I’d
sure appreciate your input... Thanks.
