Hair loss - Normal shedding or something else?

Has anybody encountered this kind of issue? Isaac is losing more hair in this particular area near his rump than anywhere else on his body. At a glance, the skin underneath this area is white with no visible lesions, redness, bumps, or anything noticeable. He's in that shedding phase but this spot is losing more hair than any other location on his body.

Thanks for responding, guys. I'm hoping this is just shedding - we're watching this thing closely and hopefully I'm just being paranoid.

Izzie has been losing a lot of fur in this area too. It's been happening every few months (maybe during season change?) and she has quite a few bald spots. I was concerned but since this has been happening the last year or so I'm beginning to think this is just how she sheds. It does kind of make her look sickly until the hair grows back in, though. :-(

Hi Orville, it seems like normal shedding to me.
