The best place I have ever bought a dog from. Well taken care of and loved. All my dogs from them have turned out to be truly great. I would recommend them to anyone.

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!

Wonderful organization - truly can not thank them enough.

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!!

We got our "moosey" 6 years ago now. Best dog ever. Was a GREAT experience and shelter. Recommended them all the time.

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!!!

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

Amazing experience getting the new member of our family! Highly recommend lifeline!

Amazing place with some incredible puppies! Our Sierra (American Bulldog/Boxer mix) is one of the best things to happen to our family!

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

Great staff. They take care of the dogs.

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

Wonderful place! We rescued our wonderful dog from them 7 years ago!

Great, no kill organization. They have the process DOWN. Very efficient, and friendly. We’re already in love with our new family member!

Thank you so much for our little Piper, we love her so much

Love this place! Adopt a dog, and then go adopt another.

We got our amazing puppy here and couldn't be happier. Everyone was so nice and helpful. They really are all about helping these babies find forever homes!

We got our dog Bear from Lifeline almost 2 years ago. He’s been such a wonderful companion and is so loved. We had a great experience adopting him, and all the volunteers were helpful and friendly. I highly recommend Lifeline and have sent a few friends and they have adopted puppies as well. Here he is now, and his adoption photo.

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.
