Phenotype Display of Mosaicism

I was wondering about the different ways in which mosaicism in furred mammals could be displayed in the phenotype, for example how would you see it on the coat colour/type?

 

I have read that it is very transient in nature (compared to Chimeras) but - say we are talking about different colour fur displaying - does it appear in only one place; can it recur in the same place after having disappeared the first time; can it recur in a different place entirely, etc?

 

I have been searching online but most sites describe the process of it rather than how it is 'seen'. I think I understand how it happens and what it is now - but I am looking for information and examples of how it displays.

 

Any comments, examples, links etc would be most helpful.

 

Thanks
