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 found Ninja there 15 years ago. Also found Thor there 6 years ago. I love this place

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. ️

Lifeline Puppy Rescue is a great organization placing so many dogs in fur-ver homes. We recently adopted a lab-mix from Lifeline and we were so pleased with the entire process. "Piper" has been the perfect addition to our family. <3 Thank you for completing our family.

I got my diesel from them and they were wonderful - If I was closer I would continue to get my pups from them

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 recently adopted our little guy from Lifeline and when my husband noticed him getting sick, we were able to take him to the rescue and they kept him in observation for two days. Everything was alright and he didn't need treatment for anything but they made the entire process easy. So happy we adopted our puppy! I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends! In fact, my family has a long history of adopting from Lifeline Puppy Rescue.

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.

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

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

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!

I got my sweet dog, Harper from Lifeline. It was a little chaotic, but just make sure you read (hours/instructions) from their FB site and on their main website. After being informed, I arrived early, received a number and was able to take her home. The majority of people who work there are volunteers, so be patient and remember the adoption day is hectic for everyone. My dog, Harper is a terrier/chihuahua mix and is smart, loving and playful. Thank you Lifeline for bringing her into my life!

We adopted our pup about 2 years ago and she’s the best pup there is! No issues :$

I not only did I volunteer here when I was younger but most of my dogs (4) have come from them :-) love this place!

We brought Brady home about a month ago now - he quickly became part of our family and we can’t imagine him not being here! Thanks to Lifeline Puppy Rescue!!

My boyfriend and I adopted our little thunder on Valentine's Day and it was the best choice we have ever made. We will definitely be back in a couple weeks to adopt another little pup❤️❤️

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 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.

Great place to get puppy.

We got our puppy who was about six weeks old 4/18/2005, he is an amazing dog, best decision ever.

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.
