Jasper has an excellent off switch, always has. He sleeps happily any time, any where, even with days off of really doing anything. I didn't even crate train him when he was a puppy, he just didn't need it.
Yarrow has a nice off switch as well, he was a bit busier/more destructive as a pup, but he will chill out easily, again even with a day off (he's not quite as forgiving as Jasper though).
Onyx has a pretty decent off switch for a Malinois! I definitely fostered it when she was a puppy, but she naturally settles once we've done something. She can be really annoying in the morning before we've done anything though, she loves to chase the cat and she'll steal shoes (just bring them out into the living room, she doesn't chew them but I think it's her plea for attention...). If I have toys out, she will never stop pestering me to play, so basically all the toys in the house are only out when I'm playing with them. When we're out of the house, she has a bit of a harder time settling. Like at the beach, if we're staying late into the evening with a fire, she has big issues falling asleep like the other dogs, because there are sticks EVERYWHERE and it's like the best toy land ever.
