We compute the $I=2$ $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}$ scattering length at pion masses of ${m}_{\ensuremath{\pi}}\ensuremath{\sim}294$, 348, and 484 MeV in fully-dynamical lattice QCD using L\"uscher's finite-volume method. The calculation is performed with domain-wall valence-quark propagators on asqtad-improved MILC configurations with staggered sea quarks at a single lattice spacing, $b\ensuremath{\sim}0.125\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{fm}$.
