Question Hair - Ugh!

Greetings everyone! My furbaby, Allie, is a 5-year-old (well, she will be later this month) Yorkie. She is totally a teapot Yorkie at 10 lbs.

Recently, we've been having some problems with her hair. I think the problem is behavioral, but I wanted to see what you think?

She looks like she is balding, and it is mostly because her hair is matting up more than ever. I brush her about once a day, but lately, she's been coming up with huge knots and we're finding her knotted mats all over the place. We haven't changed her diet, so I am at a loss.

The reason I say it is behavioral is that she'll rub on things or "swim in place" to get attention, and she crawls under furniture when I cook (which I've been doing a lot more lately)

Experts, is this sometime I need to be worried about? Or do you also believe it is behavioral?
