The Old Guy is right. (And so are the others before him... cuddling, hugging, etc).
"Turtle dovin' " or "turtle doving" has been a term that has been used in songs for years.
Here are couple of songs that use the term...
Beatles - Thats All Right Lyrics (second verse)
Well you gave me all your loving
and all your turtle doving,
all your hugs and kisses
and your money too.
You say you love me baby,
still you tell me maybe
that somebody, well I'll be through.
The Andrew Sisters - I Wanna Be Loved Lyrics - chorus
I feel like acting my age!
I’m passed the stage of merely turtle-doving!
I’m in no mood to resist,
And I insist the world owes me a loving!
Squirrel Nut Zippers Lyrics - I Found a New Baby - first verse
I've found a new baby, I've found a new girl,
My fashion plate baby got me in a whirl
Her new kind of lovin' done made me her slave,
Her sweet turtle dovin' is all that I crave.

turtle doves are love birds that sit close together and rub their necks together( necking) and coo to each other like lovers.
so this is the kind of behavior that the song refers to.
we often use birds or other animals to describe behavior like "being chicken' or "crowing" about something,or "crayfishing" ( backing up cowardly like) or "horsing around". many uneductaed people made up thses terms because they were educated not in school but by observing nature. try to think of other examples

turtle doves mate for life and are very affectionate. They rub against eachother and coo. I guess you could call them lovey-dovey. lol.
They also morn when a partner dies.
