What to Do When Your Pug Is Shedding
A Pug should not shed much normally, so sudden hair loss usually means a skin problem, poor nutrition, a coat change, the season, or too much salt. Walk through these causes to tell them apart, and ask a vet online if anything is unclear.
Why Is My Dog Unsteady on Its Feet and Falling?

My little Poodle suddenly started losing hair — what’s going on?
Sudden shedding in a Poodle is usually a skin condition or a lack of trace nutrients. Check the shedding area for scabs, hair loss, itching, dandruff, redness, or rashes; if present, treat with a topical ointment. If none, it may be a nutrient deficiency or molt — feed hair-and-coat-supporting foods and vitamins.
