A dog walking device to maintain a lateral offset between a dog and a walker or jogger. This lateral offset facilitates unimpeded forward movement of the walker or jogger by minimizing the dog's side to side movements which can disrupt the walker's or jogger's stride. In one example, the device has a proximal frame portion with a hand grip; a distal frame portion with a dog collar, or harness connection with a rotatable joint; and a rigid or semi-rigid intermediate frame section between the proximal frame portion and the distal frame portion. The intermediate frame section uses U-shape and inverted U-shape portions, or a coil spring to provide the horizontal offset. Vertical offset can be adjusted with a telescoping joint.

Dog walking or jogging apparatus and method

The present invention provides a system for the insertion of a pre-sterilized sensor probe into a sterile vessel. The system of the invention provides a reliable and straightforward way to insert one or more sterile probes into a sterile vessel. The present invention also provides a sterile vessel that includes one or more of the systems of the invention. The sterile vessel can be a flexible or semi-rigid bag or tubing of the type typically used for carrying out biochemical and/or biological processes and/or manipulating liquids and other products of such processes. Furthermore, the present invention provides a method for aseptically inserting a probe into a sterile vessel where the method makes use of the system of the invention.

Sterile sensor insertion

The present invention relates to an insert for reinforcement of bags made of plastic film, comprising a star-like plastic part having at least three jaws, wherein the insert is adapted for insertion and heat-sealing at a junction inside a three-dimensional bag where at least three plastic films meet, so that each jaw extends in a direction between two films. The invention also relates to a three dimensional bag incorporating such inserts and a method of producing such a bag.
