I adopted my little girl almost 5 months ago. She was one from the litter left abandoned in a bucket at a very young age. I get so many compliments (from my vet, day care, obedience class) about how sweet and well socialized she is. It's obvious that the fosters who took care of her before the adoption did such a fabulous job. The staff were very nice during the adoption process. They kept me informed during the spay surgery and never made me feel that I was a bother. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

We LOVE our little puppy, Zeus! We got him right before Christmas. The staff was super helpful and we were able to take our little guy home quickly! He is happy and healthy! I highly recommend Lifeline Puppy Rescue!

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.

I love my new puppy and the workers there are so helpful!!! It's a great puppy rescue!!!

My son adopted Logan male doberman mix yesterday.

We love our rescue! They were great throughout the whole process.

It’s just a great process and service!

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

So well organized. Such great well cared for puppies. Thank you Lifeline. We are so in love with Frankie!

I found my Ursa there more than 10 years ago. She was a Keeshond mix, and was so loving and sweet! This is a great place!!!!

Would add a picture if I could. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Adoption process was easy and made sense for the adoptee/staff ratio. Numbering system simple and make sense if you can understand simple directions. Adopted a pup about 2 months ago, no problems at all.

I got my lab/husky mix AXE a week ago today :) he's already my best friend :) . :D

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

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.

We adopted our new baby 2 weeks ago and love him so much! We had such a great experience I tell everybody I know that are looking for a new fur baby to please go here! We are so grateful for our lil Loki!!

I’ve adopted all of my dogs here, going back to our first, Jazper, over 20 years ago! The staff and volunteers love what they do and are so incredibly helpful, friendly, and dedicated. The puppies are well cared for and it was easy to find the puppy I wanted! I wouldn’t go anywhere else to adopt a puppy!

Our zooey is the most loving and energetic puppy! She has been an amazing addiction to our family! Thank you lifeline for my fur baby!

I have adopted 2 dogs from lifeline puppy and both have been the best pets I’ve ever owned . I cannot say enough about this amazing place

I just wanted to reach out and give a big “Thank you” to Lifeline! We adopted our sweet little boy, Finnegan, a little over a month ago from this rescue! He came healthy, happy, and mostly potty trained (which I certainly was not expecting for an 8 week old pup)! He’s been such a wonderful addition to our little family and I couldn’t be more in love with my sweet little boy ❤️! Thank you!!

We adopted a precious shepherd/lab mix from Lifeline this weekend. The process is organized and fairly efficient, considering all the puppies and potential adopters. Take a look at the available pups before you go for sure because once you get there, especially on Saturdays, there are lots of people, and you should be ready to ask a volunteer to visit with a specific puppy or at least one from a litter you’ve picked out from the online pics the day/days before. You should definitely try to get there before 11am when they open, as they give you a number in order of arrival. If you’re adopting, plan to be there for about 2 hours give or take. The employees/volunteers there are helpful and kind, and once you’re ready to adopt, they provide thorough details of the adoption contract, review the paperwork and instructions in one big group - super efficient. Bring cash for extremely fast check out once instructional seminar is finished. Credit card line can be long, but moves fairly quickly. They also sell full size crates with divider for a reasonable price and puppy starter kit so that you don’t have to stop off at the pet store on the way home - leash & collar, few days worth of food, a few chew toys, food and water bowl - all for about $20 or 30, I think. Our new puppy is beautiful, playful, curious and sweet. She’s already spayed and has her initial immunizations. We’re so excited about the many years ahead with our Scout!

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.
