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

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.

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.

We got our ginger girl there!! We absolutely love her!

We just adopted a puppy today and i was impressed with rescue all the puppies seemed well kept and loved. We will definitely recommend this place to others.

I’ve adopted my two dogs from here! Great experience! Kind people that are saving so many lives!

Seems like a wonderful organization. I was very happy with my experience with them.

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!

Such an amazing organization!!! We are believers in adopting not shopping but also wanted to have puppies! This is the best place to do both!! Love our pups (you can see them on IG @camberandjamal ) from here more than life and are so grateful to Lifeline for saving them!!!

Lexi is our rescue puppy- A friendly, easy and hassle free process. She has been an amazing addition to our family.

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.

We love Lifeline Puppy Rescue. Both of our dogs were rescues from Lifeline. We foster puppies from time to time and that's how we chose one of our dogs. We've recently fostered a pregnant mother who gave birth to 8 healthy pups. Scott from Lifeline was our lifesaver. He gave our family all kinds of support and guidance; always going above and beyond. Thank you for working so hard to help all the pups out there without homes, Lifeline!

We adopted from this place 16 and 15 years ago and got the most awesome dogs there. So when I was ready to get a dog I adopted a puppy from here back in January and my little Bells is such a sweetheart. Great place to find a bestfriend.

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!!!

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.

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

This place is awesome. I have adopted from here twice. A no kill shelter doing a great job! Keep up the good work to the entire staff and all of the volunteers that keep this place going

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.

Best ever!

We adopted our girl, Pepper in August. She came home updated on shots, de-flead and ready for a healthy life! We love her. Thanks, Lifeline!

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.
