Hardwood floors... Which wood species?/Oil based vs. water based stain

We're currently building a new home and it will soon be time to pick out hardwood floors. These floors will be site finished. We have two dogs (German Shorthaired Pointers,) so durability is a concern. I know that no hardwood is going to be completely impervious to wear and tear, but which species would be the most durable for our situation? Also, what type of finish would you recommend? Thanks!
