Shownotes

In this episode of Rescue Tails, hosts Robert Forto and Robin Lucas pull back the curtain on what it really takes to adopt a rescue dog, not just in South Korea, but internationally.

Robin, president of Rebel Rescue South Korea, explains their step-by-step adoption process, red flags they watch for, and how they manage adoptions to the U.S., Canada, Japan, and Europe. You’ll also meet Cookie, a clever mixed-breed dog with a heartwarming story of resilience and hope.

Whether you’ve adopted before or are just curious about how international rescue works, this episode will give you a behind-the-scenes look at compassion, logistics, and the cultural bridge between Korean shelters and American homes.

This episode was recorded on the Shure SM7B
