The son is hit several times by the antagonists, as well as having a pillowcase forced over his head. During the pillowcase scene, the antagonists hurt him offscreen but you can hear him screaming. Later, he is killed offscreen but you see his body afterward.

I looked it up and the answer is no, there were two dogs on set that played the dog during the film, they were both well trained with voice commands and given treats I'm between takes, the dead dog scene was also verified by an animal protection agency to have been fake, no animals were hurt during the filming!
