Three men allegedly involved in a violent confrontation over an e-scooter sale will remain behind bars after being charged.

Aron Nsengiyumva, 21, Alex Edward Deng, 20 and John Wal Wal, 24, have been remanded in custody on a string of charges after three men were stabbed and a dog was killed during the weekend attack in Brisbane's southwest.

The violence erupted on Sunday evening when three armed men allegedly demanded the residents of a Forest Lake property hand over an e-scooter that had been advertised for private sale on social media for $2000.

Three men - aged 33, 30 and 21 - armed themselves with shovels and were stabbed during a wild backyard brawl.

Nsengiyumva, from Redbank, on Tuesday appeared in Brisbane Magistrates Court with what appeared to be facial injuries.

His matter was adjourned until July 24.

Co-accused Deng, from Darra, did not appear in court when his matter was adjourned to the same date.

They did not apply for bail and have been remanded in custody.

Wal Wal, from Goodna, appeared in Richlands Magistrates Court on Monday.

He will remain in custody until his next appearance in October.

All three men have been charged with offences including serious animal cruelty, threatening violence, attempting to illegally enter premises and wounding.

Police say two of the alleged attackers went to the Forest Lake home about 1.30pm on Sunday to inspect the scooter before trying to pay with counterfeit cash.

They allegedly produced a knife but left without the scooter after an altercation.

Hours later they returned with another man, scaling the back fence armed with weapons including knives, machetes and what was later revealed to be a gel blaster pistol, police allege.

They allegedly demanded the scooter, smashing rear glass doors and stabbing the dog to entice the victims outside.

Despite the efforts of police and late-night vets, the dog later died.

Two of the alleged attackers suffered injuries during the confrontation, including a fractured cheekbone, lacerations to an eye socket and injuries to the back of the skull, police said.
