When you come home from your main walk of the day, your dog should drink, eat, and fall asleep. Nothing else. If he's trying to play, he hasn't walked enough yet. And when you pick up the leash for your last walk every day, the dog shouldn't get excited. Then you go out and the dog will ask to turn around before you're thinking of it.
If your dog does these things, he's spending his energy productively in walking. If not... keep walking.

I wish I'd kept this in mind when I had my Doberman. I can only remember one walk when she was so tired when we got back that she fell asleep. She was a good dog except for her issues:)
