Tervoodle Activity Requirements

Most Tervoodles are pretty low key, and they don’t require a lot of physical exercise. They do enjoy going on walks, but they can be happy in an apartment if given enough attention and affection. If you are looking for a low to medium energy dog, a Tervoodle may be a good choice. While they are not the most energetic, they do need regular exercise, both for their mental and physical health.
