Cauterizing is burning tissue, including nerves. The quick has lots of nerve endings in it. I don't have any experience with it being used to set back the quick. However, I know from my own personal experience with having things cauterized during surgery that the areas were really sensitive on me for well over a month.
Hope your pup feels like himself soon.
