Police were called to the scene earlier this month, launching an investigation. Officers discovered a piece of meat believed to have been laced with poison.
Investigators also found that the dogs' owner had been involved in a dispute with a relative who may have been responsible for the poisoning.
"This is a serious case of intentional harm to animals, a cruel act amid a personal dispute," Israel Police said in a statement. "Police regard such attempts gravely and will act decisively to bring those responsible to justice."
