They sure can!  Salmonella is a bacteria.  Few species are "safe".  Dogs do,
however, have stronger digestive juices (saliva, acid, bile) which helps kill
the buggers.

Wiping them is almost useless.  Unless another egg broke in the container.
Salmonella is found pn the INSIDE of the egg.  But don't worry.  If you're
paranoid about it, then just wash your mouth out afterwards.
