My Lhasa apso

I have a 15 year old female Lhasa apso. She is blind and deafm. Is there any tests or things I can do to to test how much she is blind and deaf?
She keeps walking in circles appart from in my room where she lives aswell. Why does she walk in circles
Considering she is really old she walks fine appart from walking a bit slow on walks. She doesn't have athritis
Thanks

don't do these tests. Your 15 yr old dog has apparently lead a good life. Accept the problems and just love her for herself.

15 is a good long life for a dog. She is old and nearing the end love her for as long as she is with you and don't stress her with any tests.

Dr. Frank claimed that nucleic acid therapy resulted in a definite, but incomplete, reversal of many of the degenerative processes of aging. He believed that the observed results of aging reversal obtained with nucleic acids (and other nutritional factors) pointed the way to an attainable goal of reversing the biological age if ab 80 year old man by 40-50 years. Frank stated optimistically, "Indeed, when total reversal of aging is achieved there would seem to be no reason why an indefinitely long and healthy life is not possible."

Dr. Frank reported on his experiences in increasing the life expectancy of two dogs treats with RNA. One dog was a mongrel ages 14 years, the the other was a 16 year old Chihuahua. Both dogs were nearly blind, with hair that was dry, brittle and scanty, and suffered from arthritis and "myocardial weakness." From their appearance their future life expectancy was estimated by a veterinarian to be months, at the most. Dr. Frank treated both dogs with RNA (8 gm daily for the younger dog, and 4 gm daily for the older dog), along with B complex and cod liver oil daily. The health in both dogs improved dramatically after one month, activity increased, and their coats became much softer and fuller. The younger dog died in an automobile accident at age 20, and the older dog succumbed at age 23 from an infestation of intestinal worms. Dr. Frank reported that both dogs were in excellent health immediately prior to these final episodes, and believed that their lives were definitely extended by the RNA therapy.
