I adopted my beloved border collie through lifeline. Such a great organization for rescue animals. Anyone looking for a loveable family addition, this is the place to go. Everyone is so friendly and helpful, and they have open adoptions every weekend! I've referred everyone I know here. Thank you so much lifeline for my fur baby ��

adopted a little border collie/lab mix almost 2 weeks ago - aside from a miscommunication about when to come and pick him up, which was quickly resolved and a time scheduled for us the next day, our experience with Lifeline was wonderful. Our little Newton was pretty much 100% pad trained when we brought him home, doing half the work of housebreaking for us! His free vet checkup confirmed that he's completely healthy and he's happy, playful, and thriving! Thanks for getting him off to such a great start!

This is my 2nd time adopting from Lifeline. Love the way this group works. Max and Snoopy are a wonderful addition to our family. One year old now

Great staff. They take care of the dogs.

We adopted our puppy here. People were friendly and had a great variety of dogs. We love our pup so much. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because me and my friend (who also got her dog here) had a hard time getting our rebate after we got our dogs neutered. I would get our next dog here.

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

I volunteer here and I love it! I also foster puppies during the week. All of our puppies are loved. We just want them to find a forever loving home. Thank you all who give them that.

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.

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.

Our Remy is now one year old and we couldn’t be more in love! Three friends recommended we check out Lifeline. We researched quite a few shelters before going and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We highly recommended them!

We adopted our first puppy from Lifeline and it was such a great experience. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful! She is a fantastic dog and we couldn't be happier!! Thank you!!

they provide excellent care to puppies until they are able to find furever homes for them. staff and volunteers all have a heart for each and every one of the puppies!

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

I love my new puppy and the workers there are so helpful!!! It's a great puppy rescue!!!

We got our puppy, Holly, here last December. She was already spayed so we didn't have to deal with that. She is so great. The staff was friendly enough to us. I would adopt from there again.

We got our dog, Sophie, there 9 1/2 years ago. She is beautiful and smart and we are so glad our friends recommended Lifeline Puppy Rescue to us!

We got our current pup from you, trust your business

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.

Would add a picture if I could. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Adoption process was easy and made sense for the adoptee/staff ratio. Numbering system simple and make sense if you can understand simple directions. Adopted a pup about 2 months ago, no problems at all.

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.

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.
