Our pup has small weird patches of missing fur. I’ve found about 5 small patches. One has a tiny tiny red bite on it but I’m not sure if it could be from rough housing with our other dog as they bite and nip at each other all day long. He doesn’t itch, lick, or scratch the areas in anyway and acts 100% normal.

I recommend to have Boone examined and checked for skin mites and ringworm (which humans can get). These are very common in puppies and present in this fashion. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
