Hi - I am looking for recommendations for what kind of grass to plant. I am not wild about putting in Bermuda grass, but want something that will stand up to a one and a half year old as well as a cat and a dog. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! 

The area I want to cover is about 20 feet long and about 10 feet wide – It is a south facing area but is slightly shaded by 1 tree. I’ll be putting in a sprinkler system, but I’d like something that did not hog water.

Thanks for your advice!

Leslie
