Pretty much what everyone else has said. I've ran dogs a hand full of times around Tilden, but I've been out there to catch cows quite a bit. Wear some leggins if you have some. Cowboy'n or huntin, if I'm in that country, I'm wearin leggins. Snake boots or double stitched stove tops because you are going to run across some rattlers for sure. I'd keep some dex on hand for the dogs just in case they come across one and don't get out the way fast enough. The boars do tend to get pretty toothy for their size out there. Be mindful of where you water your dogs because of the gators, like everyone else said. If your dogs do jump some javelinas, try to call em off as soon as you can. I've seen those suckers do plenty of damage. They don't fight fair. The ones in the back of the group tend to fall out of pack, make a loop, come from behind and start ripping at the dogs hind legs while they are preoccupied with the rest of the group. Plenty of tarantulas that look like they could eat a cat, if you have a thing against spiders. They just go about their business, but plenty of times I've gotten off the horse to walk a foot, and happen to look down and see one the size of my foot, walking across my boot. I'd run some python ear tags on your collars as well, ticks get pretty bad out there. Bring tweezers because you're going to be pullin mesquite, briar, and cactus out of yourself and the dogs more than likely. Call if you need a hand, I'm not to far from Tilden lol. Good luck!
