I am so sorry this happened, and glad that neither dog suffered life threatening injuries.

And yes lifting the dog up by its collar, high up around the neck is called hanging. It is usually maintained until the dog "submits". Muscles relax, dog goes limp/easy against the restraint.


To put the strength required into perspective, if you have a 130lb dog, and women of average size and strength, each woman would have to lift up off the ground 65 lbs of dog, who also might be struggling and resisting; and hold this dog up for more than 30 seconds even going into a minute or more of time. Sobering thought!
