Could be hot spots. It can happen with older dogs. I would call the vet.

It could be alopecia- which is when hair falls out often for no reason, sometimes due to stress, poor diet or illness. There is no real cure and sometimes hair never grows back. It could also be a sign of a skin infection so if it doesn't get better soon, or it gets worse I would take him to the vets to be on the safe side.

Take him to vets. Could be an allergy or mite.
