Well, I raise poodles and I have NEVER, EVER had one loose it's hair at any time, especially not as a baby of 6 months. The coat changes from puppy to adult coat but that isn't until they are around 10 months to a year and that is a gradual change with no visible hair loss... maybe 5 hairs a day at the most.
I would advise a vet visit!
