We had a horrible experience with laminate and water. The cats chased around under the Christmas tree and dislodged the mechanical tree feeder hose. Horrible buckling by the time we discovered it. Had to replace the whole floor. We used the insurance check toward real hardwood flooring, which could be refinished.

Fireboy might be happier with real hardwood that can be refinished in case of water spotting (as in dog drool not caught in time) and scratching of the surface (as in your dogs' nails).
