Protecting my dogs during the radiation fallout from Japan

Protecting my dogs during the radiation fallout from Japan...

Hello, I'm actually in Southern California, and I have 2 dogs (45 lbs. each) for whom I'm trying to find some good advice concerning potassium iodate/iodide doses...

Please, lets skip the fact that the media and the government is telling us that "it's not a concern," or that "the majority of the radiation will have dissipated by the time it arrives in North America" etc.
That is all debatable and besides the point...
All I do know is that they have continuously lied about the seriousness of this disaster, and have had to backtrack 4 or 5 times now with exposing more and more of what is really happening at these fractured power plants...

What I want to try and find out, is 1) what is an appropriate daily dose in MG, not MCG of potassium iodate/natural iodide/or even kelp, for a dog of around 45 lbs... and 2) what are the concerns, short term and long term, if any, of providing such a dose.

I definitely want to provide my dogs with a base of protection in their thyroid and elsewhere, against any fraction of radioactive iodine fallout-
I know this may sound crazy, but I know I am not the only one wondering about this question at this time...

Any help would be greatly appreciated-
