I am so sorry your baby pup has open font. There's a few pups here on YT that is healthy as can be (like Connie's Faith), they live normal lives. I have a friend that has a Chi that is 6 or 7 years old & her font never closed. She's living a very pampered life, very happy & healthy!

Keep her safe by no bumps to the top of her head. Tatiana is checked for fluid each time she goes to the vet. I pray hers will close and that you don't have any issues with it! How big is she? |
I didn't know Tati had a open font...precious girl. I was curious, how do they check for fluid?
