My partner refuses to stop hitting our dogs..

I’ve told him multiple times I don’t like it, that it doesn’t teach them anything except to be afraid of you, that it isn’t a proper form of correction. But my husband refuses to change. He said our dogs are too rambunctious and don’t listen to any other form of discipline so he said he’s not gonna stop. Our 2 dogs are living in an apartment right now which is obviously not ideal for them, so sure they have some extra energy they try and get out by playing and being wild sometimes. They’re not great walkers because they get excited to be outside and able to run around IMO. But he says they’re just too bad of dogs, isn’t willing to try and put aside the time to train them, and decided hitting them is the only way they’ll learn (it doesn’t make them act any better overall). Am I overreacting for thinking this is just not okay? I would never hit my dogs, I love them so much.
