How will this hold up to dogs?

A couple of things. These seeds did NOT end up growing the plant I previously knew as Herniaria Glabra (based on several labeled H. Glabra plants I bought at my local nursery). Having said that, I actually really love whatever plant this is. It's held up to dog pee MUCH better than the plants I purchased labeled H. Glabra (no yellowing despite multiple daily pees). It also held up beautifully over this winter with lots of snow and ice, as well as during our drought last summer. I'll be planting more this year.

How winter hardy is this ground cover and how much foot traffic can it withstand?

Herniaria is described as being able to withstand light foot traffic. Some of mine are still establishing but I've walked (carefully) on them and even the younger ones weren't damaged. They seem like a fairly resilient plant once established. I've read that this plant is native to mountain areas of Europe where I'd expect it to get pretty cold in the winter. I've planted these for the first time this year in So. CA and haven't see them yet in the winter. Our winters are quite mild. You'll have to research the max limit of their hardiness yourself. Check out what will be an update to my reviewon Amazon for these seeds. Good luck. - Terry
