Here is the sentence:

My cat Buster leapt onto the wobbly table to escape Oreo, the dog, who ran in tight circles, trying to bite Buster's tail, which hanged over the side.

The third verb, hanged, is incorrect. As you know, this sentence requires the simple past. Hung is the right form. Hanged means to execute someone by suspending that person with a rope tied around his or her neck.
