Does raw dehydrated count? I know its not a substitute for raw but isn't it in a more natural form than kibble? I feed my dog Addiction raw dehydrated and he likes his bowl clean everytime. I've found it a lot more convenient than I expected as I only have to add water.
I also supplement with homecooked as I'm really unsure with regards to bacteria risks. I did make my first foray into raw-ish food though, I seared a piece of chicken leaving the inside raw, my dog seemed to enjoy it!
I've not heard of Addiction raw dehydrated food, however, I used to supplement my dogs diet with re hydrated raw foods by "The Honest Kitchen"
I would say, in my opinion, it is definitely a more natural form for a dog than kibble. I feel that kibble is the most unnatural form of dog food there is for a dog. If I had to choose out of a list, prey model raw would be first choice, pre-made raw and dehyrated raw food would be my second, homecooking would be my third, premium canned food would be my fourth and kibble would be my very last choice. I feed my dogs raw food, currently I have them on the pre-made raw medallions but I am looking into switching over to a prey model raw diet. I, like yourself, was concerned about the bacteria risks involved, but haven't had ANY problems with any of my dogs since switching them over to a raw diet. This is a great site to check out if you are concerned about bacteria:

All that to say, I think re hydrated raw food definitely counts for something and is certainly better than any kibble you could be feeding your dog, at least in my opinion.
