Dog boots

I've hunted around Hays without dog boots. But down around Kinsley I did need dog boots. So, is there a kind of cutoff area or will I need boots in between?
 
I live in between Hays and Kinsley and hunt everywhere and never found the need for dog boots. There is no way my dogs would tolerate them, they would have them chewed off within 5 minutes. The boots would be more trouble for them than the sandburs. I did have a dog 30 years ago that was a little tender footed, but it was cactus that would bother her.
 
Hunted the Kinsley area for years and years and never ran boots. Occasional sand bur. You must’ve hit a big patch. Used to hunt up into Rush Co a lot too. I don’t think I ever ran boots in Kansas. I’m sure south of kinsley a ways you’re getting into them bad because in Oklahoma I had to pretty much anywhere west I hunted. Keep some duct tape in your vest. That’ll get you by in a pinch.
