NEVER trust a dog with a hamster or any rodent. Dogs are naturally hunters, and sadly will try to kill and devour small pets. If you want your hamster to meet the dog, have the dog on a leash and the hamster in a run about type of ball or cage so the dog can see the new friend. Very closely supervise and NEVER trust your dog with the hamster no matter how docile either one is.
