A lot will depend on the quality of the laminate you choose of course. The better the quality, the better your top surface will be.
Here is another choice for you, cork. It has so many effects now. We are doing a huge renovation and have decided to go with that in our walkout basement. We have chosen one that looks like burled wood.
Again, a wide range of product and quality. We chose a burled look, almost commercial grade, made by Wicander's. We have dogs too, that like to rough house when inside and I think this will even be better than laminate, which was the other product we were considering for the walk out portion of our house.
