I've gotten both of my dogs from here, and I would never go anywhere else.

We got our current pup from you, trust your business

This place is amazing! They really care for the puppies and I love that they travel to save puppies that would otherwise be euthinized. We have adopted 3 pups from Lifeline over the past 15 years and couldn't be happier. The most recent, Otis, is a 2 year old, Lhasa Apso mix and might be the funniest, sweetest dog we've ever met! Definitely give this place a look - worth the drive!

We adopted our puppy here. People were friendly and had a great variety of dogs. We love our pup so much. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because me and my friend (who also got her dog here) had a hard time getting our rebate after we got our dogs neutered. I would get our next dog here.

We had a great experience with the adoption process. They were helpful and explained the process well. My husband and I were not sure how to go about the process, however when we were ready we showed up an hour before the event and waited. We could tell they are very experienced in the adoption process within about 5 mins of getting there. The key to adopting from anyone is to try to pick your puppy before you go and get there early! We adopted Scout (Puppy # 16-925) at 8 weeks old, he is now a 17 week old happy and healthy lil ball of love! As a side note I appreciate lifeline's attention to Pitt Bull puppies. They made sure the puppies didn't go to homes that would have to give them up secondary to where people live. It was nice to see their dedication at finding a good and FOREVER home for these little pups! We are so in love with our Scout! Thank you for what you do!!!

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

Adorable puppies, well taken care of, nice staff. Scott was awesome.

They make it easy to find a puppy to love at a reasonable cost.

Got my puppy Baylee from them this summer and she is a fantastic dog. The staff was very helpful while we were there too.

Wiggels came from Lifeline....she was the best dog ever..

Love my pup. Such a good organization to adopt from.

Thank you for giving us our baby girl! Highly recommend Lifeline. They take great care of their puppies and answer any questions you have! So friendly! ️

Got my Marty from Lifeline, what a great experience! He was so excited to be in his forever home it took 2 days to even be able to take a picture of him. He came neutered, chipped, and vaccinated for $450?!?! What a great deal. Was well taken care of by his foster and the staff were super helpful and supportive that I got the pup I fell in love with on their website. Even let me bring my other dog to make sure they got along. I strongly recommend and I’ll be back next time I need a new puppy.

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

I have adopted from lifeline twice and they were both great experiences! My dad also adopted his dog from here as well! Great rescue!

They rescue puppies, and have wonderful foster homes. Lifeline has a great system of choosing the right puppy! We love them.

Lifeline is ALL about finding humans for puppies! What an organization. The staff members are knowledgeable and dedicated. The volunteers are willing and dedicated!

I got the best dog in the world there!

Amazing rescue that truly cares about the puppies as well as controlling the pet population so we can avoid unnecessary deaths for these amazing animals/friends/family members!

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.
