The soft spot is called an open fontanelle. It is a somewhat common problem with small dogs, but is cause for concern. Please watch him carefully to make sure he doesn't fall on his head or hit his head, as this can cause serious damage. Open fontanels are also closely related to a condition called hyrocephalus -- it would be prudent to call the vet and mention it to him.
