Lexi is our rescue puppy- A friendly, easy and hassle free process. She has been an amazing addition to our family.

Lifeline Puppy Rescue is a great organization placing so many dogs in fur-ver homes. We recently adopted a lab-mix from Lifeline and we were so pleased with the entire process. "Piper" has been the perfect addition to our family. <3 Thank you for completing our family.

I got this girl in April and she’s almost 1 year old! Although she was a bit sick when I adopted her, Lifeline took care of her until she was all better. They are great!

We got our amazing puppy here and couldn't be happier. Everyone was so nice and helpful. They really are all about helping these babies find forever homes!

Awesome people very friendly and tons of puppies to look for and save. Great staff!

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

Our little guy has gotten so big - fitting in nicely and doing well in puppy class learning to not be such a bully to his big brother. Thank you LPR for making our new addition possible!

This place is amazing. Thank you for my baby girl

Adopted my sweet Red Heeler, Milo from Lifeline Puppy Rescue just two months ago. The adoption process was quick and easy ( but make sure you show up early to get in line if you have a specific pup in mind!). Thank you for saving these pups and helping my find my furry best friend.

We got our current pup from you, trust your business

We recently adopted our little guy from Lifeline and when my husband noticed him getting sick, we were able to take him to the rescue and they kept him in observation for two days. Everything was alright and he didn't need treatment for anything but they made the entire process easy. So happy we adopted our puppy! I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends! In fact, my family has a long history of adopting from Lifeline Puppy Rescue.

Great experience with everything. We love our puppy Miah

I volunteer here and I love it! I also foster puppies during the week. All of our puppies are loved. We just want them to find a forever loving home. Thank you all who give them that.

We got our dog, Sophie, there 9 1/2 years ago. She is beautiful and smart and we are so glad our friends recommended Lifeline Puppy Rescue to us!

We got our Border Collie/lab sweet girl there over 10 years ago. She has brought us nothing but love and joy. Would definitely look at another from here some day.

I have gotten two of my dogs from here. Max a GS lived to be 16 1/2 and Scooby Doo is almost 9. Would recommend to anyone looking for a best friend.

Such a wonderful place to adopt from. The staff is kind, attentive, and very helpful. After searching countless shelters for just the right fur baby I was ready to give up. A reccomendation from a friend led me to Lifeline and they did not dissapoint. I searched the listings for the right pup, found one and showed up about 3 hours before the gates opened on Saturday. (I had heard to get there early) I was 4th in line and thought...oh no, I'll never get my puppy with all these people in front of me. As I waited I met some really wonderful people. Some first time adopters and one woman who had adopted 6 times from just this place! Had to be wonderful I thought! As the gates opened I was overwhelmed with the number of pups searching for the right parent as we were all searching for our new addition. Having full intentions of finding the one I saw in the photos I walked by one puppy that stood out from the rest. She was beautiful and when her eyes locked mine I just knew - I met my Sakra. It's now over a year and she is the best dog I have ever owned. Lifeline Puppy Rescued me. They take such good care of these pups and most are volunteers. 1/2 the adoption fee goes back to the parents of the puppy to get spayed and neutered. They also give a class on care of your new family member as well as first set of shots and a microchip. Highly recommended!!!!

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 lifeline! Our little Lilly could not be more at home and loved!!

Thank you for an amazing volunteer opportunity and orientation today. Fabulous people, no kill puppy rescue, and of course the PUPS you save every day. Bless you.

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.
