Default Dry out the swamp?

Greetings:

I recently moved into a new house and had a small square patch of sod
installed in my backyard for the dog. The person who installed it
tied in four sprinkler heads to the existing drip system that feeds
all my palms in the yard.

The area doesn't receive a lot of sunlight and, combined with the four
sprinklers working on a 10x10 area, the grass is growing great, but
the dog won't step foot in it 'cause it's nothing but mud!

The system is set as low as it can go, five minutes twice a day. Is
there a way I can turn down the sprinkler heads themselves, or
alternate two at a time. I don't want to start alternating days, as
I'm afraid it will kill the rest of the backyard.

Any thought, comments, or suggestions would be highly appreciated.

TIA.

Ben
