Raw chicken bones are not harmful to most dogs. Cooked chicken bones become brittle and will splinter when they are broken or chewed and can become lodged in a dogs mouth, throat or stomach. Raw bones, however, are much softer and safer and are said to have teeth-cleaning benefits, particularly ones with some meat left on the bone.
However, care should be given as the size of the bone should be in proportion to the dog's size. A small dog will do fine on a chicken wing, for instance, but a large dog will need a much larger portion, such as half or a whole chicken. This allows the dog to chew properly and limits any risk of any bones being swallowed whole. This also keeps the dog from eating too fast and chewing the bones thoroughly. Holding the bones also helps, especially if the dog is not used to having bones. If done safely, raw bones are no more dangerous than standard commercial dog food.
