This should help you Tammy. My yorkie was in exactly the same situation as Debbie posted above. If it helps you Sheila's soft spot was closed by the time she was fixed at 6 months. I too was very worried and was extra careful with her when she was a puppy. She's now 16 months old and a very healthy, incredibly energetic little 3 pound bundle of yorkie energy
