A dog in Colorado is doing his part to help during the coronavirus pandemic. Sunny, a golden retriever, has been delivering groceries to his neighbor, Renee, while she self-isolates.
Sunny’s owner, Eveleth, and Renee have lived next to each other for over a decade.
Renee has respiratory problems so she uses an oxygen tank. The COVID-19 virus is especially deadly for people with respiratory problems because it creates inflammation and fluid build-up in the lungs.
People with chronic respiratory issues have some of the highest mortality rates from the COVID-19 virus.
The delivery process is simple: Eveleth sends Sunny over to Renee’s house to get her shopping list. After Eveleth returns from the store, she gives Sunny the grocery bag and he delivers it next door to Renee.
“She got the list, she gave it to Sunny, Sunny brought it to me,” Eveleth told KKTV. “I went to the store, got her her groceries, and he delivered them all to her.”
