Having broken my ankle and my husband his knee (!)our Leylandii was
allowed to grow like crazy.
We have managed to sort out the top reasonably, we don;t have to worry
about neighbours, but the problem is the bottom of the hedge is showing
gaps. It doesn't help that the dogs (large) think its a great playing
ground and run through and through...BUT is there anything that can be
done to thicken the bottoms?Will they thicken up now we've cut the tops. I
know the parts we've cut into excessively will remain brown but how about
the bottoms?

No they will not grow again. Do what a huge nursery has done near me, plant
new ones in front and let them grow.
