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

My son adopted Logan male doberman mix yesterday.

I’ve adopted my two dogs from here! Great experience! Kind people that are saving so many lives!

We adopted our sweet girl a few weeks ago and not only has she been an amazing dog and perfect addition to our family but it was great experience getting her. If you have a specific dog you’re wanting I would go early because people start to show up early. The staff were all very helpful and friendly and genuinely enjoyed what they were doing. Turkey had a great first vet visit and is a very healthy little girl. If we ever decide to adopt again we will definitely choose lifeline again. ️

no kill org and caring to pups and the mom

My babies are 10-11 now and both came from this amazing rescue. These people are doing wonderful things and anyone looking to get a dog should check out lifeline first. Thanks for connecting me with my best friends lifeline.

We got our sweet girl Penelope here, in December. *Adoption was very easy, they explain their process very thoroughly. Great people, Great experience. Just Get there very early if you see a puppy you have in mind. *One Con though is once you leave with your puppy, it is difficult to get a hold of someone if you have questions or concerns. You have to message them and wait for response, but overall we had a great experience.

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

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

Very professional! Take VERY good care of the puppies!

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!

Very helpful and friendly but they could use some more help

Such an amazing organization!!! We are believers in adopting not shopping but also wanted to have puppies! This is the best place to do both!! Love our pups (you can see them on IG @camberandjamal ) from here more than life and are so grateful to Lifeline for saving them!!!

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.

Got my Joey here seven years ago! The rescue is a joy to work with! Have sent many friends here when they are looking to adopt!

Such a wonderful experience and much less stressful than we thought it was going to be. Little Toshi played in a big backyard today and then crashed out.

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!

Rescued my little girl from you.

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.

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

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.
