Looked more Malinois than Shepherd.

I think you are correct. He looks just like my Mal. The body “squareness” (no slope) is a giveaway along with the coloring. The fawn body hair with a black mask is a dead ringer for a Mal. A GSD has more coloring, longer hair, and the proverbial sloping body frame.

When watching the video, I see human failures in his training. My Mal has had (and is still getting) obedience, protection, and bite work training. Her only limitation is me failing to train her to do a task.

Like most dogs, she wants to please me, so she works very hard to do so. Currently she is off leash, on both voice commands and hand signals. She runs with me frequently, and will not go to investigate critters (cats, dogs, skunks, squirrels, rabbits) when she is in an obedient “heel” while running. I have no fear when we are out that she will stray.
