I have both typical bark mulch and in some areas, a "tumbled" pea gravel. Costs a few dollars more but it takes the hard edges off so if it gets between the dogs paws, less likely to cause injury.

They make rubber mulch from used tires. Call around the big box stores and see if they have it.
Thank you for the ideas!
