Thanks very much to all of you for your response on my post.

Is Thulani a lapdog? No, he is not! The only time he sit in my wife's lap was this summer on the boat - otherwise he put only his head in ours lap.

That was the reason I post this two or three photos where he sit in the lap. He was so cute ... he has 48 kilos and sometimes acts like a small 5 kilos dog.
Yesterday he won his first CAC on dog show in Trbovlje in Slovenia. There were 340 dogs on the show from 18 different European countries.
Today on the same event he didn't get anything. The judge said he is too big! And he was/is right! In written description of Thulani both judges (one from Sweden and other from Slovakia) point out his excellent proportions, angles, muscle structure, movement, beautiful head, excellent ridge ... but both point out he is too big. I agree with them

.
I will post some photos from this show later when I get them.
This was our last show. Thulani is really too big (72 cm high and 48 kilos) and besides he doesn't like shows very much!

The only place where he is happy is in the woods.
Thanks again for your lovely answers on my post.
