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

We got our Kylo there! Great place. Great care. A must for anyone looking to give a puppy a forever home. �

Very professional! Take VERY good care of the puppies!

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!

My best good girl came from this rescue back in 2002. She was my first dog as an adult. We had to put her down last year and she took a part of my heart with her. This rescue is great and rescues pups from remote areas. Thank you for my first fur child.

they are doing a wonderful thing to save these pupps

2 dogs from lifeline 15 years apart. Thank you!!!

My husband and I got our puppy at Lifeline almost 3 years ago and he is just the best dog we could have asked for. We now have a 2 year old and he has grown up with her and is such a protector of her. Best dogs! He is a Rottweiler/German Shephard mix and is full of energy. I wish there was a way to find his siblings he was with to see how they grew up. I would go back there in a minute to get another puppy!! Very recommended!

We found Ninja there 15 years ago. Also found Thor there 6 years ago. I love this place

We got our "moosey" 6 years ago now. Best dog ever. Was a GREAT experience and shelter. Recommended them all the time.

Thank you so much lifeline! Our little Lilly could not be more at home and loved!!

Lifeline Puppy Rescue gave me my best friend(s)! My family adopted our first family dog from here, and now 18 years later, I returned here to adopt my own puppy - and it was the best decision I've ever made! The staff is friendly, knowledgable and they really care about the puppies that come into their rescue. Thanks for all that you do for these puppers!

Never thought I would meet our best friend there! I so love our dog, have for 11 years. So grateful. Highly recommended. -Michael (heather's hubby and millies dad).

We picked up or puppy lat Saturday and so far have been very pleased. He is pretty good with using the potty outside, knows sit, wait, and knows his kennel. He still gets excites over our kitties but we are making process. We still jave alot of training to go but hes is very loving and is making a food addition to our family. Thank you so much!! -the Greaneys

We love � our puppy! You guys were great!!! Thank you!

Love

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

Great staff. They take care of the dogs.

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

Amazing rescue that truly cares about the puppies as well as controlling the pet population so we can avoid unnecessary deaths for these amazing animals/friends/family members!

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.
