I would recommend having Stew checked out by a vet since you are noticing weight and hair loss. My biggest concern for Stew is that he has contracted some type of parasite from being outside. You vet may want to check a fecal sample and/or sample the skin to check for infection. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.
