We brought home our newest family member yesterday! We're so in love!! So happy she came with shots, spayed, deworming, and a microchip. Very happy to support a rescue and not puppy store!

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

very well run and organized with minimal chaos to freak out the dogs

I adopted my sweet Border collie mix Lola from Lifeline Puppy Rescue in 2001. She lived a long happy 17 years with us and was the best pup ever!

Rescued my little girl from you.

I got my son his first dog here, 1998. Lady was a beautiful Australian Shepherd. She passed away in 2012. Love this place and what they do.

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!

I just wanted to reach out and give a big “Thank you” to Lifeline! We adopted our sweet little boy, Finnegan, a little over a month ago from this rescue! He came healthy, happy, and mostly potty trained (which I certainly was not expecting for an 8 week old pup)! He’s been such a wonderful addition to our little family and I couldn’t be more in love with my sweet little boy ❤️! Thank you!!

very caring people, doing their best to help as many puppies and dogs as they can.

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.

My son adopted his dog Riley there 9 Years ago. He recently passed away from an apparent heart attack. But was a loyal trusted friend who lived his person. He’s the big one

Radley was a wonderful addition to our pet family.

Got my Joey here seven years ago! The rescue is a joy to work with! Have sent many friends here when they are looking to adopt!

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 picked up or puppy lat Saturday and so far have been very pleased. He is pretty good with using the potty outside, knows sit, wait, and knows his kennel. He still gets excites over our kitties but we are making process. We still jave alot of training to go but hes is very loving and is making a food addition to our family. Thank you so much!! -the Greaneys

Thank you for an amazing volunteer opportunity and orientation today. Fabulous people, no kill puppy rescue, and of course the PUPS you save every day. Bless you.

We got our wonderful pup Chloe from here. They are great!

We had a great experience adopting our puppy drone Lifeline, and felt fully educated and prepared before we headed home with the little guy :) he’s been a wonderful addition to our fur family and his big (little) brother loves him just as much as we do!

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

I adopted my boy Dave from lifeline almost 11 years ago (Dave turns 11 next month!). Man I love this dog, and I'm thankful lifeline brought him to me. If you want a puppy, please come here, such great work is being done! I'll be back... hopefully several years from now, but I'll be back!

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.
