Meet the breeder

I'm Kayla C., the breeder behind Warrior River Kennels located in Billingsley, 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.

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

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Warrior River Kennels reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Catahoula Leopard Dogs.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Congenital Deafness (BAER, registered with OFA)

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
