This planking is almost indistinguishable from reclaimed, remilled, white oak planking but at a

White Oak is a wonderful species for flooring. (A great choice if you are
a dog owner!)* It is quite a bit harder than red oak and when
finished in the European oil is a very forgiving floor that is easy to maintain.
They are tongue and grooved on the edges so you can install them using
traditional edge nailing but our customers think they are best installed with traditional 18th
century rosehead nails. (included in

* No wood flooring is dog "Proof". However, our customers' experience with
the oiled rustic white oak and dogs is very good. White oak is very hard and the
rustic nature of the wood hides a lot of marks that the dog will add to the
floor. (hand cut edges hide even better)
Because the oil finish can be spot repaired, you can fix any severe damage
pretty easily.
As with any wood flooring, we do recommend keeping the dogs nails trimmed and
placing water bowls on a waterproof mat.
