What could make a 18 week old yorkie lose it's body hair, without having any lesions or itching

thyroid problems such as cushings disease.

Allopecia, I dont think there is a cure for that?

Skin infections.. including yeast, bacterial and fungal

Mites/Mange

Allergies.. including food and contact allergies.

Thyroid problems and allopecia seem more likely, considering there is no itching or lesions.

allergies or a medical condition called alopecia (hair loss). Am not sure how it can be treated. People also suffer from this condition-no body hair at all. Check with your veterinarian ASAP to see if a diagnosis can be had for the condition of your yorkie puppy

Could be a type of mange, there's a hereditary type that just makes the hair fall out with no itching. You should get you dog to the vet asap though before it gets worse.
