I would not recommend these for any long periods of time (15mins max) as the posture in the carrier is very different to a normal, standing dog and I would be concerned both about the spine and pressure on internal organs. Dogs should be encouraged to walk and stretch normally in order to maintain bone, muscle and ligament strength and core fitness in order to reduce the risk of injuries

Once he is fully vaccinated and has tick prevention that would be ok. You can also let him run by himself for short stretches and then carry him. Make sure you have a container with water with you so he can drink.

How lucky of you to visit Germany recently! I would check to see if it's possible to ship the ones you like from Germany to Bosnia & Herzegovina. I'm not very familiar with the inventory of dog harnesses in your country, and given that many things can easily be shipped, it might be the best idea to have the cute and comfortable ones you say in Germany shipped to your home :-)

Whether or not it is safe to leave your dog at your sisters will depend on your dog. If he has never been around children before or has shown any aggression towards children, then it is less safe. No dog should be left unattended around children, so it is best if your dog hasn't been around the baby to keep it in an area separated from where the baby will be- either a separate area of the house or outdoors. Some dogs are fine with babies, others may be made anxious by the presence of a baby or they may view the baby as a prey due to small size and the funny noises the baby makes. Since your dog is so small, perhaps putting it in a pen inside your sister's house would work. He shouldn't be hard to contain due to his size. Whether you should bring him with you is going to depend on where you area going- do they allow dogs? will it be very hot outside? will you have to leave the dog in a car? It can get hot VERY quickly in a car in warm weather even with windows rolled down, so it is
