Shoe away the mess at your veterinary practice

Use shoe organizers to store your veterinary patients' leashes.

At our hospital we use hanging shoe organizers to store patients' leashes while they're being boarded. These organizers conveniently hang on the door to the kennel, and the leashes are easy to find when pet owners come to pick up their pet.
