A lurcher is a type, not a breed. Dogs Trust describes it as a sighthound, such as a Greyhound, Whippet or Saluki, crossed with another breed such as a Collie or Terrier. Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home says lurchers "are not actually a recognised breed".
As of 8 November 2026, 15 lurchers are listed with rescues in and around Flintshire on LocalPetFinder: by their listed age, 11 adults and 4 aged 7 or over.
5 of them are listed as a cross, as the rescue describes it: American Bulldog/Lurcher Cross, German Shepherd Cross Lurcher and Labrador x Lurcher and others. Breed labels on rescue listings are often a best guess from looks.
The rescues mark 6 as able to live with children and 5 with other dogs. Where a profile says nothing, it doesn't mean no: ask the rescue.

A lurcher is a sighthound, such as a Greyhound, Whippet or Saluki, crossed with another breed such as a Collie or Terrier, as Dogs Trust puts it. It is a type rather than a recognised breed, so lurchers vary in size and coat.
A greyhound is a pedigree breed; a lurcher is a cross. Dogs Trust names the lurcher as one common greyhound crossbreed, a mix of a sighthound like a Greyhound, Saluki or Whippet with a Collie or Terrier, and says lurchers can be long-haired or short-haired. Blue Cross says they often share similar traits to greyhounds.
It depends on the dog, not the breed. Today the rescues mark 6 of the 15 lurchers listed in and around Flintshire as able to live with children. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the dog could live with.
The lurchers listed in and around Flintshire today are with North Clwyd Animal Rescue at Trelogan (9), Carla Lane Animals in Need at Melling, about 21 miles away (3), Freshfields Animal Rescue at Ince Blundell, about 19 miles away (1) and 2 other rescues; each profile shows that rescue's fee. Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.
No. We don't list animals for sale. Every lurcher on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. The 15 lurchers listed in and around Flintshire today are with North Clwyd Animal Rescue at Trelogan (9), Carla Lane Animals in Need at Melling, about 21 miles away (3), Freshfields Animal Rescue at Ince Blundell, about 19 miles away (1) and 2 other rescues, and each rescue shows its own fee on the profile. For comparison, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross puppies under six months start from £525. If you searched "lurcher puppies for sale Flintshire", the lurchers here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price. In Wales, Lucy's Law has meant since 10 September 2021 that puppies can only be bought where they were bred, or from a rescue or rehoming centre.
Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Of the 15 lurchers listed in and around Flintshire today, each shows its rescue's fee on the profile; the nearest rescue is North Clwyd Animal Rescue at Trelogan. Many rescue fees are under £500: Dogs Trust charges £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.
Not right now: none of the 15 listed in and around Flintshire is under a year old by its listed age. Puppies do get listed, so check back or look at the adults, whose rescues can tell you much more about their character.
