I wouldn't give a dog any frozen foods because of the bacteria. Eating raw meats causes food poisoning to humans, and is most likely to cause food poisoning in dogs too. Be aware that any gone off raw foods can be quite dangerous to you and your dog. Don't feed your dog raw lamb. It can easily make them ill.

Dogs should avoid raw salmon.

Raw salmon carries millions of bacteria which is just laying dormant on the fish, temporarily knocked out by the coldness of the ice or refrigeration. But as soon as heat is applied (eg room temperature or internal body heats) the bacteria wakes up and causes complications.
Raw fish also has the risk of carrying parasites such as flatworm.

All fish should ideally be eaten cooked. Although some cultures embrace raw fish, such as Japan, the number of people admitted to hospital with raw fish-induced parasite infections in those cultures are off the charts.
Raw fish that has been treated and is stored in metal containers, such as tinned tuna, however is fine.
