Raw bones are ok to give. It is cook bones that you have to worry about splintering.

My dogs eat raw chicken w/ bones all the time. As previously stated, it's cooked bones that are bad.

the dog has to learn how to chew bones into mush before swallowing, but all in all, the chicken bones thing is a myth. As mentioned before cooked bones are the danger for splintering, and there shouldn't be an issue with feeding raw bones as long as the dog knows how to eat them properly (practice).
