In 2026, Lola began to exhibit unusual behavior, frequently lying on her grandfather’s lap and nudging him persistently. A family member noted that this prompted her grandpa, who is battling colon cancer, to seek medical attention. After visiting the emergency room, doctors diagnosed him with kidney failure. Had he delayed seeking care, the situation could have worsened.
National Mill Dog Rescue celebrated Lola's instincts, stating she may have saved her grandfather's life. They expressed pride in her development and the meaningful role she plays in the Mullane family's life, highlighting the deep bond formed after they adopted her.
