We have gotten both of our pups here. I can't say enough great things about the staff and what they do. Such a great place!!

I got my 2 pups from here almost 17 years ago. They have passed over the rainbow Bridge now. Due to circumstances I was not able to get me some new buddies. I am building a cabin in the mountains in 2019. I will be going back in May to get me 2 more best friends. I can't wait.

We got our little girl through Lifeline and absolutely love, love, love her! We were a little hesitant about getting another dog, saw her on your website, went there to meet her and fell in love! We were amazed at the wonderful things you do there in getting all those pups and dogs adopted out. It was wonderful that she was already fixed and had her 1st set of shots. It cant be easy caring for all those dogs before adoption. We would definently recommend your organization to anyone looking to add a fluffy member to their home. Thanks for all you do there and thank you for our new pup! �

We foster for Lifeline. They are a wonderful caring organization that truly puts the pups first. We adopted our new addition over the weekend.♡♡♡♡

Thank you so much lifeline! Our little Lilly could not be more at home and loved!!

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

My boyfriend and I adopted our little thunder on Valentine's Day and it was the best choice we have ever made. We will definitely be back in a couple weeks to adopt another little pup❤️❤️

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!!

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

I’ve adopted all of my dogs here, going back to our first, Jazper, over 20 years ago! The staff and volunteers love what they do and are so incredibly helpful, friendly, and dedicated. The puppies are well cared for and it was easy to find the puppy I wanted! I wouldn’t go anywhere else to adopt a puppy!

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

We LOVE our little puppy, Zeus! We got him right before Christmas. The staff was super helpful and we were able to take our little guy home quickly! He is happy and healthy! I highly recommend Lifeline Puppy Rescue!

We met our 5 month Lucy girl with Lifeline Puppy rescue! We � her and are so lucky!

They are an amazing group that save lives! We got our wonderful lab mix, Lucy, from them and are so grateful.

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.

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

What a fantastic adoption experience!!!! The staff is friendly, grounds are clean, organized and fair! We got to the rescue at 9am and were about 5th in line. It was snowing like crazy but you get to wait in your car so that is very convenient. They give you numbers as you drive through the gate so it's fair for everyone. We got a puppy from the litter we wanted and we love her. The puppies were clean and well taken care of. The staff seems like they really care and they love their work. They are a no kill shelter and keep the puppies until they are adopted. The adoption session is lengthy so dont be in a hurry. We got there about 9 and left about 1pm.

Lifeline Puppy Rescue is a great organization placing so many dogs in fur-ver homes. We recently adopted a lab-mix from Lifeline and we were so pleased with the entire process. "Piper" has been the perfect addition to our family. <3 Thank you for completing our family.

I got my diesel from them and they were wonderful - If I was closer I would continue to get my pups from them

We'd highly recommend Lifeline Puppy Rescue! We were happy with Lifeline and will adopt there again. We adopted 11 years ago and just said goodbye to our Molly Wednesday. She was a GREAT dog & we miss her very much but when the time is right, we'll definitely 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.
