Samantha Ronson is in a criminal investigation over her dog attack. Her bulldog Cadillac mauled and killed a neighbor’s three pound dog over the weekend. The dog had some biting priors to that incident, so it is very likely animal services will want Cadillac.

More pictures of Samantha after the bite…

Samantha flew the dog to the east coast, however, before anyone could get their hands on the dog.

Officials from the County Department of Animal Care & Control tell TMZ there is a criminal investigation underway to determine cause of death for Tiger, the 3-pound Maltese that was killed after Sam’s bulldog, Cadillac, got out of her apartment unit yesterday.

We’re told Ronson — who was sleeping at the time of the attack — is the subject of the criminal investigation.

An Animal Control official tells us they will be looking at the circumstances of the attack and Cadillac’s propensity for violence. As we first reported, Cadillac had attacked another dog a while back and had actually just come home from a 3-week socialization program.

Really, if the friends were the ones to let out the dog, why is Samantha the one in trouble over it? Yeah, it’s her dog, but still. Thse so-called friends better man up and confess to leaving the dog in the hallway. Do you think Sam’s dog should be put down because of the incident?
