"I was a dick and scared/bullied my animal into not doing something! Works like a charm!"
Same shit as spanking. Yeah I know the animal wasn't permanently physically harmed, but you have taught it to fear you with the threat of physical violence... sure it can be effective, but is that what you want to impart on the world? Meh. You know what else is effective? Training your dog properly.
I should also note that grooming is a self-soothing behavior that makes your dog feel better. Imagine being smacked every time you took some deep breaths etc. If having an animal annoys you, maybe you shouldn't have the animal you are not equipped to deal with.
