We had a great experience!! Love our new family member

We bought a puppy last year and he is perfect. LPR is very informative and cares about the animals they home.

Lifeline Puppy Rescue works so hard to save puppies from places like New Mexico and Texas that will most likely end up in an overcrowded kill shelter. They nurse them back to health and give them opportunities for an amazing and fulfilling life.

My husband and I adopted our puppy Nala from here and we are so happy. Lifeline is an amazing rescue! The people who work here amazing! Our puppy brings smiles to our faces everyday! Thank you so much lifeline to the wonderful addition to our family!

We met our 5 month Lucy girl with Lifeline Puppy rescue! We � her and are so lucky!

This place is awesome. I have adopted from here twice. A no kill shelter doing a great job! Keep up the good work to the entire staff and all of the volunteers that keep this place going

Thank you so much for our little Piper, we love her so much

We adopted our sweet 8month old dachshund corgi mix Thea yesterday from Lifeline Puppy Rescue! We got there around 2 in the afternoon, which was fantastic! There wasn't that many people there and we were aloud to wonder around looking at puppies. A volunteer immediately approached us explaining their process and rules. They told us to not put our fingers in the cages for puppy health reasons, which we really respected, it showed they are looking out for the puppies. Our little Thea (was Thelma) immediately caught our attention. The same volunteer set up her kennel for us to meet her. She gave us some treats for Thea to come up to us, while kept checking in with us to see how things were going. When we decided to adopt our sweet Thea, they took us into this building for a class explaining the process on how to raise a puppy, how to fill out the application, what the email they send you says and how to read it, along with vaccine information. We felt very confident in our decision. Our sweet Thea is the perfect addition to our family. We have already told our friends that want puppies about our amazing experience. THANK YOU LIFELINE PUPPY RESCUE!! We are ridiculously in love!

They make it easy to find a puppy to love at a reasonable cost.

I met Doke at Lifeline Puppy Rescue on Easter 2 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since. He goes with me on road trips, on mountain hikes and jogs. I am so happy that I decided to spend Easter morning at Lifeline Puppy Rescue. Everyday has been awesome since.

My son adopted his dog Riley there 9 Years ago. He recently passed away from an apparent heart attack. But was a loyal trusted friend who lived his person. He’s the big one

Amazing experience getting the new member of our family! Highly recommend lifeline!

You all are awesome! Great facility, easy to navigate website, super fun fundraising events, great adoption process!

Love

I got my, "Li'l Miss," dog, Pippa last Saturday from Lifeline Puppy Rescue. She was a rescue from a puppy mill the week before and had been spayed and also had a second surgery to remove 3 bladder stones from her bladder. I let Chelsea know that I was interested in giving her a loving caring life, once she was through her post surgery challenges. Chelsea and staff were so helpful and kept up communications for a week, with me, updating her improvements. So helpful, so knowledgeable and the process was super easy, to adopt her. I got Pippa last Saturday afternoon, and brought her back on Sunday to start obedience training. That Pippa had a bond with Chelsea and was starting to bond with me, the training went very well. She was eager to listen and please both of us! A win-win situation! Anyway, Lifeline Puppy Rescue deserves 5 stars for the services they provide. I am certain that my new 4 year young pup, Pippa and I, were meant to find each other and it was all Divine Timing.

no kill org and caring to pups and the mom

I not only did I volunteer here when I was younger but most of my dogs (4) have come from them :-) love this place!

Thank you for giving us our baby girl! Highly recommend Lifeline. They take great care of their puppies and answer any questions you have! So friendly! ️

Seems like a wonderful organization. I was very happy with my experience with them.

we adopted our newest addition from lifeline last weekend. i saw her on the website the day before & fell in love with her picture, so we arrived 2 hours early to the event which made us #4 in line. this allowed us to go in a couple minutes ahead of the other people in line which is nice, but if we had wanted to look at another dog, we wouldn't have been able to. fell more in love with our ella after spending time in the play area with her. spent 5 hours at the event total. all in all it was an easy process. we couldn't be happier about our puppy. she is very happy and healthy.

Lifeline Puppy Rescue is a no-kill rescue for young puppies throughout the Rocky Mountain Region, Kansas, & New Mexico. 99% of the puppies we rescue come from city and county shelters. We like our mom & pop, friendly, small town image. People like adopting Lifeline's puppies and giving them a chance at life. The Lifeline connection to small towns and rural areas is crucial. When we work together, puppies no longer have to be destroyed.
