Hair loss on dogs and puppies can be caused by a few different abnormalities. These include excess cortisone production, growth hormone imbalance, ringworm, or mange. To find out the cause, see your veterinarian immediately.

It could be due to hot/heat spot, irritated (possible due to fleas and biting the fur off) or dry skin (look for red irritated skin under the bald spot). Give your dog a bath. If these spots continue, take him to a vet.

I think your dog has mange, a skin disease caused by parasitic mites. A trip to the vet will fix it.

Why has my hamster got a bald patch?

That really depends where the bald patch is. Its normal for most hamsters to have a bald patch behind their ears. If its somewhere else on their body its likely that its caused from stress. This could be because the hamster is not getting a proper balance of 12 hours light and 12 hours dark, has felt an extreme change in temperature, or is particularly cold or hot. Noises can also cause a hamster stress.
