Can a laminate floor be put in the kitcheni have a dog who slops water?

Yes, a laminate floor will do just fine in your kitchen. Unlike wood floors, the laminate is very resistant to damage from moisture. Be sure the sub-floor is prepared properly, however! Sever water damage to a sub-floor can cause warping and buckling if the proper materials are not used. If this happens, damage to the sub-floor will telegraph problems into your new laminate floor, causing it to warp and buckle as well. Hire a qualified contractor to install your floor who knows what he's doing and who follows all appropriate building codes. But a sloppy dog probably isn't much to worry about. :)

Can you install a ceramic floor over an existing laminate floor?

It depends on the condition, material and surface of the laminate. A linolium floor, for example, is soft composition with a textured surface. This makes a horrible foundation for ceramic tile, giving room to crack the grout between tiles. A hardwood-type laminate is smoother and harder which is a better foundation. That said, the best thing to do is rip the laminate out and start fresh.

Why do you use laminate for?

Laminate floors are very simple usually hardwood looking floating (meaning you don't actually fasten them to the substrate) floors. Any type of true laminate floor does not actually attach itself to the floor, so as long as your floor is flat, you can install a laminate floor that locks to itself rather than locking to it;s substrate. there are some more requirements, but the requirements all depend on your particular installation.
