Uncooked bones are fine to feed as long as they are the appropriate size. My boys eat Cornish hen and quails and sometimes chicken wings and necks. I mix and match meat which is called frankenprey.
I also feed like this. Dogs are carnivores and they don't need veggies. It's a myth that wolves eat the stomach contents of prey and the myth has been debunked a long time ago. You might find this website helpful: The Many Myths of Raw Feeding

I've tried everything from all the kibbles available to home-cooking to BARF and finally to the species appropriate whole prey raw diet. I finally found something that really works, for the dogs and for me, and I'll never feed anything else again. This type of diet also has behavioural advantages because the dogs are more satisfied and tired out by their food.

I'm a member of a few raw feeding groups that offer great support, information and advice. You can PM me if you're interested.
