Wallace the Malinois: Dog Training Revolution
Wallace
Wallace is a young Malinois with serious energy and drive. This series is about giving that intensity somewhere useful to go while building attention, household skills, calmer walks, and better choices around distractions.

Meet Wallace
Wallace was introduced as a high-energy, high-drive adolescent dog. That description can tempt people toward a control contest, especially with a Malinois. I wanted the series to ask a more useful question: how can I turn that speed, curiosity, and desire to act into skills that work for both of us?
The playlist moves through attention, yes, leave it, barking, settling, sit, down, stand, tug, recall, household destruction, heel, stay, grooming, off-leash foundations, and reactivity. Later videos also show what I tried when food was not effective in the moment.
Some episodes are full lessons and some are short demonstrations. Together they show a range of training moments, but a short video should never be mistaken for a complete behavior plan.
What we worked on
- Channeling high energy and drive into productive activity
- Building attention before asking for more difficult behavior
- Leave it, barking, and household destruction
- Leash walking, heel, recall, and off-leash foundations
- Reactivity and staying able to learn around distractions
- Changing reinforcement when food was not working
Three turning points

Training a high-energy powerhouse dog
Meet Wallace and see the central idea of the series: direct the energy instead of entering a contest with it.
The household problem
Stopping destructive behavior
This episode connects management, appropriate outlets, attention, and reinforcement instead of waiting to punish damage.
The real-world challenge
Working through leash reactivity
Reactivity made distance, timing, recovery, and the surrounding environment more important than the appearance of instant control.
Use this with your own dog
The series lets you watch training in context. These published guides pull out individual skills when you need a simpler place to practice.
Barking
Sort out what is driving the barking, then build a response that fits the cause and the setting.
Leash Pulling
Build attention and practical walking skills without turning every step into a correction.
Fear & Reactivity
Work with triggers, distance, arousal, and recovery when the outside world is too intense.
