They calls themselves the .

They are ex-military, retired police detectives, and former convicts.

They are unpaid volunteers who share a love for animals, and that’s their mission: love animals. In reading about the non-profit, you learn that they do this through any means necessary. They use hidden cameras, undercover aliases and sometimes hire private investigators to save abused and neglected animals.

What caught my attention this morning was The Long Island group’s rescue of a dog named “Bear” that they say has spent 15 years chained up in a backyard. Using their unique range of skills, they convinced the owners to as they broke the dog’s chain. It’s both heartbreaking and heartwarming to watch.

What follows is a montage of the Guardians exploring and spoiling Bear. The dog finally gets to see the Long Island beach and gets a special treat at Starbucks – The Puppuccino – which is a cup of whipped cream.

Needless to say Bear is enjoying his new life. He can’t say that for himself, but the kind souls of the Guardians consider it their duty to speak for those that have no voice. I can’t think of anything kinder (or heroic).
