I decided not to interrupt higgy's nice thread.
I have developing lawn problem. I have a small path between my garage and house. This is kind of the main way from the front yard to the back. The dog uses it constaly and has already ripped up a lot of grass. What can I do to keep this area in good condition? Is there a fast growing and durable grass I can get? Is it hopeless?
Here is a picture of it currently.
