Hi Shelby, the only thing I can think of is pigface, or even better the baby sunrose that is also a succulent. My dogs trample over mine and I have no problems. Except that it grows so quick and you have to keep containing it to the area you want it in. These plants can be grown from just cuttings like any succulent. It does like plenty of sun though to give pretty pink flowers.
