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

I adopted my little girl almost 5 months ago. She was one from the litter left abandoned in a bucket at a very young age. I get so many compliments (from my vet, day care, obedience class) about how sweet and well socialized she is. It's obvious that the fosters who took care of her before the adoption did such a fabulous job. The staff were very nice during the adoption process. They kept me informed during the spay surgery and never made me feel that I was a bother. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

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.

I got my Mia girl there almost 5 years ago. She's the best dog I've had the privilege to share my Family with. If your looking for a awesome addition to the family this is great place to go, and you help puppies that need a home!

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

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

Found my best friend, Rio, here. Awesome staff and amazing organization.

Super Excited to Hopefully get a New Family Member!!!

This is where i adopted my puppy 12 years ago!!!

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

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.

Such a wonderful place to adopt from. The staff is kind, attentive, and very helpful. After searching countless shelters for just the right fur baby I was ready to give up. A reccomendation from a friend led me to Lifeline and they did not dissapoint. I searched the listings for the right pup, found one and showed up about 3 hours before the gates opened on Saturday. (I had heard to get there early) I was 4th in line and thought...oh no, I'll never get my puppy with all these people in front of me. As I waited I met some really wonderful people. Some first time adopters and one woman who had adopted 6 times from just this place! Had to be wonderful I thought! As the gates opened I was overwhelmed with the number of pups searching for the right parent as we were all searching for our new addition. Having full intentions of finding the one I saw in the photos I walked by one puppy that stood out from the rest. She was beautiful and when her eyes locked mine I just knew - I met my Sakra. It's now over a year and she is the best dog I have ever owned. Lifeline Puppy Rescued me. They take such good care of these pups and most are volunteers. 1/2 the adoption fee goes back to the parents of the puppy to get spayed and neutered. They also give a class on care of your new family member as well as first set of shots and a microchip. Highly recommended!!!!

I met Doke at Lifeline Puppy Rescue on Easter 2 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since. He goes with me on road trips, on mountain hikes and jogs. I am so happy that I decided to spend Easter morning at Lifeline Puppy Rescue. Everyday has been awesome since.

I just wanted to say thank you to Lifeline Puppy Rescue. We adopted our dog Maverick on Sept. 1st of this year and we are beyond lucky to have this guy in our lives. Maverick was rehomed before we adopted him and Lifeline gave us all the info we needed to get him started on a routine and proper training to make sure this guy is living his best life. I highly recommend Lifeline Puppy Rescue to anyone looking to adopt a new pup.

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! ❤️

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.

Very professional! Take VERY good care of the puppies!

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.

We bought a puppy last year and he is perfect. LPR is very informative and cares about the animals they home.

Adopted our precious Little Duke! We are in love! He's the perfect addition to our family.

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.
