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

Very helpful and friendly but they could use some more help

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.

Best ever!

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

We adopted our girls Maggie and Dakota from Lifeline in 1997. They are gone now but we always remember Lifeline and our experience with them. When we are ready for a new friend we will give them a call.

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

We got our amazing loveable companions Lulu and Tito from Lifeline. Best dogs ever!!!! Thank you Lifeline.

We adopted from this place 16 and 15 years ago and got the most awesome dogs there. So when I was ready to get a dog I adopted a puppy from here back in January and my little Bells is such a sweetheart. Great place to find a bestfriend.

Got my Thor from them..he is wonderful addition to our small family....thank you.

Radley was a wonderful addition to our pet family.

Lifeline Puppy Rescue is a wonderful organization that saves many puppies every week. This rescue truly cares about the well-being of the dogs under their care, takes the time to train and communicate with volunteers, and provides fosters with everything they need and more. I highly recommend supporting Lifeline Puppy Rescue!

We got our Border Collie/lab sweet girl there over 10 years ago. She has brought us nothing but love and joy. Would definitely look at another from here some day.

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!!

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! ❤️

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. ️

We just adopted our little Luna on Sunday. She is just perfect and has been a great addition to our family. All of the staff and volunteers were so amazing!

This place is amazing. Thank you for my baby girl

What a fantastic adoption experience!!!! The staff is friendly, grounds are clean, organized and fair! We got to the rescue at 9am and were about 5th in line. It was snowing like crazy but you get to wait in your car so that is very convenient. They give you numbers as you drive through the gate so it's fair for everyone. We got a puppy from the litter we wanted and we love her. The puppies were clean and well taken care of. The staff seems like they really care and they love their work. They are a no kill shelter and keep the puppies until they are adopted. The adoption session is lengthy so dont be in a hurry. We got there about 9 and left about 1pm.

We adopted Sonny 8 years ago and he’s the best dog we’ve ever had!

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.
