In my opinion based on what I learned and further research I don't feel raw is really safe. When the dog eats something raw especially chicken which is a big carrier of salmonella (which dogs can indeed get) and then go to their water dish it is dropping the germs into the water and can produce even more germs and contaminate the water. You also have their hair holding onto those germs as well and a wet cloth doesn't just take them off you would have to be using actual soap and water. Then there is their paws they use to hold it. It just kinda seems like a really risky situation. I know that over here there was a big thing about dogs that are fed raw shouldn't be therapy dogs that go to hospitals and nursing homes because of the the germs they are given to those people passed by the dogs pours, poo and saliva. Best thing you can do is brush at least every other day. Generally chews hard enough to clean the teeth pose the risk of broken teeth.
