Pretty sure Fran is going blind.
Her eyesight is definitely becoming increasingly impaired. She is so so excited when we come home and for dinner but I swear, every time I move my hand, she thinks I'm throwing food at her and squats back. If it actually is food instead of a try to pet her, she can't catch it at all and then can't find it. She has also started restricting her movements to the living room, kitchen and bedroom and travels in a very predictable path. No more wandering through my husband's very cluttered office or hanging out under his desk.
Still lots of full body wags, running back and forth like a maniac, legs splayed, when we come home. So excited and active and she can get up and down the stairs with no problem. Fun and sweet as can be. Just kind of losing one thing at a time.
