HERE are two reasons why people who are lovers of animals should visit the Humane Society 3113 Cherryhill Road this week. "Pedro," the Dalmatian, is a well behaved dog two and a half years old who needs a home. Tiny, the Capuchin monkey from South America, is five years old and is already spoken for.
