At our butcher shop we did raw food for kennels and individual owners for 14
years and not one of those dogs attacked any cattle, sheep, deer or chickens
after they were started on the raw diet (meat we used in the dog raw diet
food). Now, a couple were chicken killers before they started on the diet
but then most dogs will if given a chance!

I did some research on this when I got the LGD. People have found that
feeding raw doesn't teach dogs to kill. Of course, killing animals is
instinctive. I've trained my LGD not to bother chickens while feeding
chicken leg quarters. In fact, she has demonstrated that she is
protecting the chicken flock.
