Police have been told there was a debate on social media about the responsibilities of dog ownership on Tuesday afternoon.
After the cyber dispute, police say a 71-year-old man was awoken by a noise at his Howlong home before going to investigate.
He was allegedly assaulted inside his home and detained.
A 27-year-old man was arrested during a Howlong car stop about 10am Wednesday.
A 24-year-old woman was also arrested at a home in the town.
The man will front court on Thursday and the woman will appear next week.
