Decking... paint or stain?

Hi. We put in some decking a couple of years ago and opted to stain it. Unfortunately it is flaking away and rather than continue with something that's not going to wear well I'd prefer some alternative ... if it's harder wearing. We've re-stained a few times up to now but this winter seems to have been a bit harsher and the wildlife seems to be taking its toll too with their claws (mainly foxes) plus the local cat population that visit from time to time. I was thinking of an external wood paint but will it be any better? All suggestions gratefully received! Colour options anyone? I was just thinking a natural tone e.g a dark oak.
