Default MDF workbench top & dogs

I'm thinking of building this beast as a workbench:

http://www.shopnotes.com/images/issu...nch-medium.jpg

If you're too shy to go to the page, it's a workbench with 2 full 3/4" MDF
layers and 2 "semi" MDF layers for the top (MDF on the ends and edges), and
a hardwood banding around the edges of the MDF. Looks to be very stable and
heavy.

My question is: will the MDF do alright for using benchdogs, or will the MDF
wear out quickly? I'm thinking of the round Veritas dogs for easy
installation.

Cheers!
Dukester
