I adopted my Toad in February of '15. He's 1 now and the best thing that's ever happened to me.

Such a wonderful experience and much less stressful than we thought it was going to be. Little Toshi played in a big backyard today and then crashed out.

We just went and picked out/up our little girl Honey yesterday... I really liked the structured process considering first come first serve.. I wish they had a little more back history on the pups but understand why they dont ( As they are just genuinely trying to save puppies from kill shelters) the only other complaint is that my girlfriend saw on the website that they offer 30days of "pet care (insurance if you will)" following your adoption only to be told in person that they no longer offer such services... other then that I'd send any of my friends and family there to get a pup in a heart beat... And as for the people talking about "0 help" with their pups. Honey got an extremely bad tummy ache and started vomiting a couple days after we brought her home and the staff at lifeline ACTED EXTREMLY PROFESSIONAL in assisting us with our puppies illness, kept her over night to closely monitor her gave us an end of night update and let us know the next day that she was feeling much better and we could go pick her up... and they assured me that if anything else happened to her to simply bring her back and they would get her fixed up.. and that's WITHOUT THE INSURANCE POLICY.. But she is happy as ever cuddling with my kiddos as I type this message... Thanks again for my adorable pup and professionalism in dealing with her tummy bug!!

Lifeline Puppy Rescue gave me my best friend(s)! My family adopted our first family dog from here, and now 18 years later, I returned here to adopt my own puppy - and it was the best decision I've ever made! The staff is friendly, knowledgable and they really care about the puppies that come into their rescue. Thanks for all that you do for these puppers!

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.

What an incredible experience! Lifeline LOVES on these puppies until they find their forever homes. The adoption process goes so quick and smooth. I will recommend Lifeline to everyone!! Thank you!

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.

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!!!

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

Jun 27th, 2017

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!

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.
