My wife and I just adopted a puppy today. What a great place and great people. A really wonderful experience.

Rescued my little girl from you.

The very best place to adopt a puppy!

I have not been here since 1999 but this is where we adopted 2 of our puppies - 1 in 1997 & the other in 1999. Sadly both are gone. We lost Hershey in November at 14!

~Just adopted our sweet baby boy Bane on Saturday! I cannot even express how much love he has brought to our family and how sweet he is. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We are looking forward to loving Bane for MANY years to come! He was meant to be ours! THANK YOU!

We got Louis here almost a year ago and it was one of the best things we’ve ever done!

Our pup Kala is from lifeline. Smartest and most sweet dog ever! :-) black lab possible mix but she's smarter than top tier black lab breeds! We love lifeline for giving us our baby girl!

I've gotten both of my dogs from here, and I would never go anywhere else.

This is my 2nd time adopting from Lifeline. Love the way this group works. Max and Snoopy are a wonderful addition to our family. One year old now

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.

2nd dog, and second great experience. Get there early on Saturdays.

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

I adopted my Toad in February of '15. He's 1 now and the best thing that's ever happened to me.

We have adopted 2 dogs over the years from Lifeline Puppy Rescue and they have both been wonderful! Lifeline Puppy Rescue does a great job helping dogs!

Our Auggie is now 10 months old and we brought him home at eight weeks. We are amazed at what a fabulous and healthy dog he is. He was potty trained by 11 weeks. He has been great with kids, at and even our bird.He is the happiest, most easy going dog we’ve ever had. We showed up out of the blue after visiting a different rescue and adopted Auggie in about an hour and a half. We don’t know his mix, lab something, but whatever it is is perfect. Our experience was and still is great.

I got my 2 pups from here almost 17 years ago. They have passed over the rainbow Bridge now. Due to circumstances I was not able to get me some new buddies. I am building a cabin in the mountains in 2019. I will be going back in May to get me 2 more best friends. I can't wait.

We adopted our puppy Ollie a little over a month ago and I cannot recommend lifeline puppy rescue enough! It's not just a come pick out a puppy and get out. You can tell these folks care about the puppies and want them to go to happy, loving homes.

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 adopted a 4 month old male Shepard mix yesterday and he is the dog of our dreams. He is so sweet and has a pretty good idea of what is right and wrong. I would highly recommend adopting from life line

We got our baby here almost 12 years ago & she is truly my Soul dog! This is a Great place that I highly recommend. I will definitely come here again after my babies have moved on to the rainbow bridge

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.
