Doran Coins has one employee other than Michael.  
Well, this employee walks on all four legs and gets
paid in dog snacks.   Yes, its a dog - a
beagle/dauchsand mix named Sophie.  Sophie is
more multi-tasked than her owner - She is the Head
of Security and also the family comedian - she can
crack people up.  But don't let the fact that she is a
dog fool you - she is very smart, but unlike her
owner, she can't grade coins nor answer e-mail.  
Sophie comes from the Animal Shelter in Kankakee
County, Illinois, and gets plenty of attention from her
owners.

Family Comedian
