It's too blurry to see I'm afraid but your vet will be able to say on Monday.

It's hard to tell from the photo but it might be. It is nothing to worry about if it is . Your vet will if course advise you about it. I believe they usually resolve themselves as the puppy grows. Sometimes they need repaired by the vet but I think that is rare.

  Sorry Joanne - was posting at the same time

Quite common. The breeder should have sorted it for you. Either to say it does not need treatment or to get it fixed by their vet.
