Is raw goat milk safe for dogs with digestive issues and allergies?

Question

I have read that raw goat milk can help with a dog’s digestion, and even help with allergies. Would it be recommended to give a dog an appropriate serving of raw goat milk if a dog exhibits digestive/gastric issues, and skin allergies?

As far as my knowledge goes this is not officially (scientifically) recommended as cannot help with both allergies and general gastrointestinal inflammation related to diet. Personally I do not recommend it in these cases. It is true though that goat milk can be digested more easily compared to dairy milk.
