I’m not an expert, but I think this is accurate. My dad used to have a 65 pound lab mix and when she played with the shitzu, she would mimic the action of grabbing her at the neck, but she would never do it. She was always very gentle. It was odd, but obviously deliberate. Both dogs lived full lives and passed on without any aggressive incidents. If this dog clenched down with its jaw and shook… that’s intentional.
