Son if you mean 'are' but yes 'fueron' if you mean were.
Por or para depending on context.

"Noise" would sound better in singular, ie: El ruido venía de los gritos de Quetzcoatl por su perro.
Por should be used here because he is crying over / about his dog.

Unless perhaps he was shouting for his dog to come? - Kiwi-Girl, Oct 16, 2013
MC, in this case the preposition would be "a" rather than "por" - 005faa61, Oct 16, 2013
