I've never yelled/hit/or raised a hand at my LiLi, but, whenever I tell her "no" or "come here lili, did you do that?" she will run under my bed and hide…. When she does that, it does make you feel bad for telling her "No" - or for saying whatever you said, lol. That's odd because, I always talk to her in a calm, sweet voice because I don't want her to do that.
It may not be the tone of your voice it may be your body language. If you are telling her "No" then I am assuming that the situations are when she is doing something that you do not want ther to. Have you tried used redirection instead of "no". Like if she is chewing something you don't want her to chew to trade her for something that you would like her to chew. If she is getting into stuff then offering her toys or to play with her or even a short training session with treats.
