Does anybody know which grass seed I need to patch up?

[John2016]

We have recently moved into a home and the previous owner had two dogs. Looking at the garden they loved to dig and have left bald patches around the lawn.

I wanted to understand which grass is currently laid (please below pictures) so I can purchase the correct seeds and repair the patched areas.

I see my neighbour has done something similar, however, their new grass it much thicker, darker green and grows at a different paste.

Many thanks
John.

TBH even something like Evergreen 4-in-1 will help green up the lawn and add grass seed.

The other option would be to continuously overseed the lawn every March/April and September/October to gradually replace the old grass with new. I wouldn't bother going down the route of matching grass since lawns are generally grown with a mixture of different types of grass seed.
