Some of my best spots in AZ are covered with cholla cactus and I will never bring my dog to those place again. My pup tried to run over a fallen cholla and carrying a 60 pound whimpering lab for a mile is something I'll only do once. There are good spots without much cactus but either way, bring yo...

Re: Phoenix Arizona Quail hunt
Also, I would bring my dogs because Gambels are notorious for getting shot but still managing to run under the biggest, nastiest, prickly pear cactus and are utterly unfindable without a dog.

I am certainly not a Veterinarian, but it looks to me that your dog certainly needs medical attention. More than just bandages and cleanings. That looks painful. Good luck with it.
