Just about every dog loves to get out and about, but breeds that adore long daily walks or vigorous exercise tend to be medium-large breeds, including Labrador retreivers, Doberman pinschers, Rottweilers, Irish and English setters, Weimaraners, Border collies, most pointers, German shepherds, and Dalmatians.
Eventually the Zoysia Grass plugs will spread, take over the cool season grass and will establish a full Zoysia lawn. It may not be a successful endeavor to try this method with warm season grass as Zoysia is a warm season grass and the two would just compete for resources having the same period of growth.
The species is characterized by a dense, uniform sod that is extremely thick and tightly growing, which often chokes out weeds and crabgrass. It tolerates shade and salt spray, as well as foot traffic and mowing. In Florida, Zoysia japonica is one of the best choices to establish thick turf from seed. Zoysia tenuifolia also thrives in Florida's hot, humid weather and is a good choice for grass that can withstand heavy traffic; however, it has an extremely fine texture and is prone to becoming thatched.
