Such a great service for puppies and people! The process is a little hectic, but fair. Very professional people, whom are very helpful and friendly. When we were told our Rey was not spayed yet one of my children started to cry so one of the gals there asked if she could fix it with some M&M's and of course it fixed everything. When we decide to adopt another puppy, we will use there services again. Thank you Lifeline for our new kid :D

I adopted my beloved border collie through lifeline. Such a great organization for rescue animals. Anyone looking for a loveable family addition, this is the place to go. Everyone is so friendly and helpful, and they have open adoptions every weekend! I've referred everyone I know here. Thank you so much lifeline for my fur baby ��

we adopted our pup a year and a half ago. Looking for a playmate and they will be the people I go to. They do awesome work

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

Can't wait to see all the adorable puppies at the Colorado convention center Friday !!!

Great, no kill organization. They have the process DOWN. Very efficient, and friendly. We’re already in love with our new family member!

I want a dog from here soon or down the road...:)

In 2010 I came to lifeline looking for my new best friend Kika, I had seen her picture on your website and immediately fell in love, I knew as soon as I saw her I wouldn't be leaving that day without her. 3 years later my fiancé and I decided she needed a friend so we got back on your website and found Cairo, again, as soon as we both saw the picture we knew. We came back to the shelter and thank god we were the first ones there so we got first pick, the family that pulled up behind us was also there for Cairo. � We lucked out! He is one of the best dogs I've ever owned, as is she. I've never been happier and I'm happy to say they are healthy, happy, spoiled dogs and I just wanted to say thank you for bringing us together. They light up our life every single day. I have tons of pictures of them on my profile if you ever care to see your more then welcome. Thank you for what you guys do! We've never been happier, keep up the good work and god bless all of you. Thank you. ���

I got my Maxx dog almost 10 years ago and he still acts like a puppy. I was his foster mom but I couldn't let him go. So I kept him. Being a foster mom was great seeing the puppies go to there forever homes was so rewarding.

We have two amazing pups from Lifeline. The staff is amazing, friendly and knowledgeable. Was a great and enjoyable experience. So happy with our pups, they are the happiest and best members of our family.

About two weeks ago I adopted from Lifeline after keeping my eyes on this dog for weeks through their website. They were extremely helpful through the process, answered all of my questions, and they even allowed me to bring my older dog to their location to meet my new guy before bringing him home. I would highly recommend Lifeline. Also, I wanted the staff to know that “Ralphie” is now “Louie” and he is doing great and has been a fun addition to the family. Him and his brother play and snuggle constantly!

3 years ago I got my two amazing pyr/lab mixes at lifeline. I cannot imagine my life without them.

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.

we adopted our newest addition from lifeline last weekend. i saw her on the website the day before & fell in love with her picture, so we arrived 2 hours early to the event which made us #4 in line. this allowed us to go in a couple minutes ahead of the other people in line which is nice, but if we had wanted to look at another dog, we wouldn't have been able to. fell more in love with our ella after spending time in the play area with her. spent 5 hours at the event total. all in all it was an easy process. we couldn't be happier about our puppy. she is very happy and healthy.

Wonderful organization - truly can not thank them enough.

Met a pretty baby girl and her handsome brother at the MDA Firefighter Chili Cookoff. Puppies and firemen, what could be better? Being able to bring the pretty baby girl home, that's what. Thank you for allowing Autumn to be part of our family!

We got a puppy in December and couldn't be happier.... Thanks for our New Fur baby boy Beast...

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

We got our puppy, Holly, here last December. She was already spayed so we didn't have to deal with that. She is so great. The staff was friendly enough to us. I would adopt from there again.

Got my adorable pup, Jenko here a little over a week ago and I'm IN LOVE with him. All should adopt from Lifeline.

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.
