Provincial police spokesman Nicolas Scholtus said police detained a suspect who was inside the home and he was later questioned by investigators.
Animal control teams had to be called to the home to take charge of several large dogs on site.
The provincial police investigation is ongoing in the Estrie region town, about 70 kilometres from Montreal.
