The outfitter and guide don't boot their dogs for that area. But they have so many dogs that they rotate and rest their dogs the day after the hunt.
I had my Lewis rubber dog boots with me. When I hunt in the Panhandle I almost always put them on because of the sand burrs. But I followed the guide's practice and ran them bootless in that country. The boots would have helped with the rocks. Not so much with the cactus as it easily goes through them.
