Hi everyone! I had my 9 week old chi to the vet today for her first visit since I've owned her. The vet pointed out to me a soft spot on her head that hasn't closed up yet. He said this is very common in chihuahuas and he sees more chis with the soft spot than without. He said I shouldn't be too worried but just to watch it and make sure she doesn't hit fall or hit or head. Just was wondering if anyone else's dog has this and if I should be concerned at all? I'm a first time puppy owner and worry a lot. Thanks for the help.

Yes this is common and infact the standard states " with or without molera(soft spot)" My lily is 18 months and still has a small soft spot she is only young so it will get smaller and smaller overtime - just be careful she doesnt bang her head etc :wave:
