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

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

I got this girl in April and she’s almost 1 year old! Although she was a bit sick when I adopted her, Lifeline took care of her until she was all better. They are great!

Excellent rescue!! Thank you for doing what you do!!!

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

I got the best dog in the world there!

Great place to get puppy.

I adopted my Toad in February of '15. He's 1 now and the best thing that's ever happened to me.

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 have adopted two wonderful dogs from LPR. No problems. Highly recommend!

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.

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!

I got my lab/husky mix AXE a week ago today :) he's already my best friend :) . :D

I have gotten two of my dogs from here. Max a GS lived to be 16 1/2 and Scooby Doo is almost 9. Would recommend to anyone looking for a best friend.

My son adopted Logan male doberman mix yesterday.

We love our Winnie. He is our life!! We had a very positive experience and adoption process. Great staff, love the events and all of the charity donations they raise.

We adopted a 4 month old male Shepard mix yesterday and he is the dog of our dreams. He is so sweet and has a pretty good idea of what is right and wrong. I would highly recommend adopting from life line

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

Just had a great encounter with a foster parent Eduardo! He was walking a momma and her 9 puppies on a path near my home. All the pups and their mom were well behaved and very social! Eduardo was very informative about the rescue, clearly took pride in raising well socialized puppies, and took the time to answer all of the questions that came from everyone so amused to see the site of 9 tiny pups and their mom walking on the path! Thank you so much for doing good in our community! Sincerely Fellow animal lover

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

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.
