It could be the stress of the dog attack or a spring molt, What are they eating or they free ranging more or less since the attack. I know when I started to free range my girls more egg production dropped I had to up their protein intake. I hope they get better and I am sorry you lost your bantams

The dog attack would be traumatizing... They will start laying again when they feel safe again. Just give them time and try to comfort them with treats and affection...

I'm sorry about your loss. I lost my previous flock to a stray dog. It was Feb a year ago. I placed a chick order the same day for my current flock, but it is a terrible thing to witness.
