A service dog is helping an Angola Navy veteran manage PTSD and get her life back.

Jessie Gorsuch served as a Navy hospital corpsman before a medical discharge in 2014.

At the time, she was taking 45 different medications and later spent six months in rehabilitation at the Battle Creek VA. In 2024, she was paired with Deana Jean through K9s for Warriors, a nonprofit that provides trained service dogs to veterans at no cost.

The three-year-old golden retriever and Labrador mix was rescued from wildfires in Canada and spent about a year training to help veterans.
