    No, their skulls don't crack! Its just the way this particular breed's skull is shaped, plus they have a tremendous amount of muscle, even on their heads, and that helps give the impression of indentations. (All puppies have the same soft spot in the top of their head that human babies have. Just as in humans, that will eventually close, except in some individuals of the very small domed-skull breeds like Chihuahuas.)
