There is no reason to hit a dog unless a dog attacks you, unprovoked. If you provoke a dog into attacking, you pretty much deserve it. Dogs do not respond well to negative reinforcement. If a dog (as a pet) does something you find wrong, they should not be hit but reprimanded with an interrupting noise (like "HEY!" or "UH-UH!"), then isolated for a short period of time.
