Mosaic was brought to ACC as a stray after being left at a police precinct, and while her past is unknown, she's been showing us more of who she is each day. She's social and curious, approaches handlers readily, and can be playful and expressive once she feels comfortable. Mosaic can also get easily over-excited, especially during handling or transitions, so she benefits from calm interactions and clear structure to help her stay grounded.
My Ideal Home
Mosaic will thrive in an experienced, adult-only home that understands dogs who have a low threshold for arousal. She needs people who can read canine body language, keep interactions calm, and use positive, force-free training to help her settle when she gets overstimulated. A predictable routine, daily exercise, and enrichment like food puzzles and pattern games will help Mosaic succeed.
Good with Kids?
No. Mosaic is recommended for a home without children under 13 due to her tendency to become over-aroused and excitable during interactions.
Good with Other Pets?
Her history with other animals is unknown. In the shelter, her dog-to-dog behavior has been inconclusive. Any introductions to other pets should be slow, structured, and guided by an experienced adopter after a full decompression period.
Leash Manners
Mosaic generally walks nicely with mild pulling, though she may have bursts of stronger pulling or excitement. She's not reactive to people on walks and benefits from steady handling and calm pacing.
Overall Health
Recovering from an upper respiratory infection (CIRDC) and receiving supportive care. Otherwise healthy overall.
Behavior Determination
Level 3 - Experienced Adopters Recommended. Mosaic has a low threshold for arousal and can become over-excited during handling, showing behaviors like jumping, zoomies, and head whipping. She needs consistent, reward-based training and caregivers who know when to pause interactions and help her reset calmly.
Other Fun Facts
• Social and eager to engage once she knows you
• Playful personality with bursts of zoomies
• Enjoys training and enrichment when guided calmly
• Looking for a patient, dog-savvy home where she can learn to settle and shine
