Meet the Staff
Adam Pinon
Founder/President/Humanitarian
I grew up as a passionate outdoors kid, always with a dog by my side and a heart full of love for nature! That carried me into adulthood as I explored the incredible experiences the United has to offer. My two amazing dogs have my world since my early 20s, inspiring me to dedicate life to their happiness! After spending many wonderful years in Texas, I took the thrilling leap to Ohio in 201, where I discovered a bigger calling waiting for me. I welcomed my firstdog in 2012, and by 2018 I was excited to start my landscape construction. This incredible journey ignited my passion for creating a program that helps others care for their animals, me to establish an organization focused on this mission!
Peter Leontescu
Marketing and Operations
I grew up in Bucharest, Romania and came to United States when I was 12 years old. I have always had a love for animals. My mother adopted my first puppy, a Rottweiler and German Shepherd mix. He was my best friend throughout my childhood. Later after I finished college, in my 20s, I moved to Ohio and got a German Shepherd dog and later a Husky friend for him. Much later in life, I got my first wolfdog, an upper mid named Fenris. This is where I got involved with this wildly misunderstood breed. Horses are another animal and love and respect. More specifically, mules.
When Adam told me about his idea for this web site and specifically for helping reunite owners and their animals, I was excited since I have never seen this done before. Helping not only animals. But their owners too, who may have gone through hard times, a natural disaster and now are just needing their kennels, fencing or enclosures rebuilt.
Deborah Weaver
Co-Founder/Director of Operations
I have always been an animal lover. After my parents got tired of me bringing home strays, they sent me to volunteer at the Cincinnati Zoo as a young teen. This blossomed into a lifelong love of caring for any creature, including reptiles, big cats, and eventually finding my way to helping Paul Strasser at his Red Wolf Santuary in Indiana. I graduated high school from the Animal Conservation and Care program or "Zoo School" as it was more commonly called. Later in life I received my Wildlife Rehabilitator license, finished college and received licenses for Funeral Director and Embalmer.
Currently I am the mother to two wonderful twenty-agers, one grandson, proud companion of four wolfdogs, three Savannah Cats, a rescued community cat and a slightly feral human named Michael Booher whom I am currently engaged to.
Randi Bird
Social Media/Fundraising Coordinator
I grew up always having at least one animal in the house or interacting with any critter outside, except insects(I didn't appreciate them until I was older).
Growing up, I always told people that I was going to be a vet and even got a chance to work with one. I realized that wasn't my calling and went to college instead. I graduated with a degree in wildlife management, but began working with a Pit Bull Rescue right after and fell in love. Caring for, training, and seeing those dogs get adopted put me on my path of becoming a certified dog trainer.
I became certified through the Animal Behavior College in 2013 and began providing my services to educate and train both the owners and their dogs.
