‘The Exorcist’ Star's Home Searched in Reported 100-Dog Kennel Investigation

Officials said the warrant check sought to verify county code compliance and count animals, with reports putting the number at up to 200 dogs.

  • On Friday, the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control and the Los Angeles County Department of Regional Planning searched Linda Blair's Southern California property to investigate a reported kennel operation housing over 100 dogs.
  • Authorities allege the facility's permits expired in 2023, prompting the inspection warrant after multiple contact attempts to Blair went unanswered, according to the DACC.
  • While Blair holds a permit to keep 60 dogs, officials reportedly found 200 canines living on the premises; approximately 70 law enforcement officers and agency personnel conducted the operation.
  • Describing the visit as "a really big surprise," Linda Blair addressed the search on Instagram, claiming the issue involves only pending paperwork and noting she is planning to move.
  • No animals were immediately removed from the property, and Blair continues managing the Linda Blair Worldheart Foundation, recently stating the organization needs help covering a $5000-plus bill for medical care.
