We just adopted a puppy today and i was impressed with rescue all the puppies seemed well kept and loved. We will definitely recommend this place to others.

Our Remy is now one year old and we couldn’t be more in love! Three friends recommended we check out Lifeline. We researched quite a few shelters before going and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We highly recommended them!

I adopted my “puppy” from lifeline over 16 years ago. It was the best decision I have ever made! Thanks Lifeline for helping me find a family member who is still happy and enjoying life!

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!

I adopted my boy Dave from lifeline almost 11 years ago (Dave turns 11 next month!). Man I love this dog, and I'm thankful lifeline brought him to me. If you want a puppy, please come here, such great work is being done! I'll be back... hopefully several years from now, but I'll be back!

Excellent rescue!! Thank you for doing what you do!!!

I have adopted from lifeline twice and they were both great experiences! My dad also adopted his dog from here as well! Great rescue!

This is where we found our sweet boy Koal 11 years ago. When he came up and tugged on my shoelace I knew he was the one for us. And even though he had a bit of a rough start he has become such a joy for my entire family. This is such a great rescue! Thank you!

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 Copper from Lifeline in April of 2014 (Australian Cattle Dog mix). The facilities were clean and well maintained and the staff was very helpful. The puppies seem to go fast here, it's a very popular spot for adoption! Also, so glad they are taking better photos of the pups now! They used to be photos of the pups on a scale and they all looked so scared and uncomfortable. This is such a better representation of the happy pups we saw at Lifeline!

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

We got our little girl through Lifeline and absolutely love, love, love her! We were a little hesitant about getting another dog, saw her on your website, went there to meet her and fell in love! We were amazed at the wonderful things you do there in getting all those pups and dogs adopted out. It was wonderful that she was already fixed and had her 1st set of shots. It cant be easy caring for all those dogs before adoption. We would definently recommend your organization to anyone looking to add a fluffy member to their home. Thanks for all you do there and thank you for our new pup! �

Thank you Lifeline Puppy Rescue for rescuing our sweet pup 8 years ago. We are so grateful for your wonderful organization. Your organization has saved so many loving puppies and provided them with loving families. Thumbs up to the great service you provide.

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!

Lifeline puppy rescue is so great!! We arrived at 8 am and were 4th in line and I did get my puppy of choice. I am so happy with my new pup and experience with lifeline! They had so many adorable puppies and it was awesome to see they were almost all adopted. I highly suggest adopting through lifeline.

We rescued our Mika last weekend through Lifeline Puppy Rescue and couldn’t be happier with the experience that we had! Everyone was friendly and super helpful. If I could give every puppy here a furrever home, I would! Thank you for letting us adopt Mika and add her to our little family! If you want to adopt a puppy (or 2 or 10) I highly recommend Lifeline Puppy Rescue! ❤️

I adopted Bailey in 2001 and he was my true soulmate. He lived 16 years and brought me such joy every day of those 26 years!

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!

they provide excellent care to puppies until they are able to find furever homes for them. staff and volunteers all have a heart for each and every one of the puppies!

We have gotten both of our pups here. I can't say enough great things about the staff and what they do. Such a great place!!

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.
