Warrior River Kennels

Meet the breeder

I'm Kayla C., the breeder behind Warrior River Kennels located in Montevallo, AL. I breed multi-purpose working Coonhounds and Catahoulas. My dogs are bred for conformation and performance. I am currently home to an outstanding pack of Catahoula Leopard Dogs who are used daily in the field. My dogs are bred for conformation and performance. The goal I set, and which I believe is still the most important, is to produce healthy puppies that make a well-rounded character in an adult dog.

Q. & A. with Kayla

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I began gradually over 15 years of owning and competing with working dogs.
  • What makes your program special?

    The amount of emphasis placed on ability, combined with correct conformation and stable temperaments. Lifetime breeder support makes my program special.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
