Linda Blair Faces Fines Over Dog Shelter Violations
5 Aug
Summary
- Three dogs require veterinary attention following a shelter inspection.
- Linda Blair's shelter permits expired in 2023, authorities claim.
- She faces citations for expired license and exceeding dog limits.

Los Angeles County officials conducted an inspection of Linda Blair's animal shelter, discovering 251 dogs housed on the property. As a result of the inspection, three of these dogs require immediate veterinary examination. Authorities allege that the permits necessary for operating the shelter had expired in 2023.
During the inspection, two citations were issued to Blair. One citation was for running a shelter with an expired license, and the other was for exceeding the maximum number of dogs permitted. An order was also issued mandating corrections for deficiencies in housing facilities and sanitation.
Neighbors had reportedly expressed concerns about the growing number of dogs at the property for years, and authorities claim Blair ignored previous calls before the warrant was served. The number of dogs found was more than double the allowed maximum of 100.
