If she is going bald The main reason would more the likely be allergies. Skin allergies are very common in dogs. I would recommend a vet visit first to have a scraping of the skin tested then if it is a skin allege than a good quality food would be in order! Rule of thumb Corn and beef are them main reasons dogs develop hot spots (Bald patches) If you get your dog food from the grocery store it is crap food!! Go to the pet store and get a better quality food.
Avodrem, Nutros, Pinnacle, Nature Receipt
these are just a few good foods on the market Talk to your vet about grocery store food and see what they say!!

The hair is not just a part of your body and it is a symbol of beauty, status and health. It is important for you to take proper care of your health in order to prevent early hair loss. Learn here https://tr.im/WbZPw
It is not a very serious problem and with a little bit of caution you will be able to prevent further hair loss.
There are certain uncontrollable factors like pregnancy conditions or certain illness or genetic factors that will result in hair loss. But, this does not mean that you cannot do something about your hair loss.

If this hasn't happened before- it's more likely an ALLERGY. Have you changed the dogs food lately?
It could also be fleas...or...perhaps your dog has recently gotten a rabbies shot. Some dogs can be allergic to the rabbies shot and it can make their hair fall out.
You should think about recent changes to your dogs diet and routine to figure out what is causing this problem.

She could have ringworm or someother fungus or infection...she could have an elevated level of estrogen in her bloodstream. Or this could be a result of poor breeding. Alopecia is common in both breeds.
