The answer is:
Capulet compels Paris to wait two years to seek Juliet’s consent to marry.
In the excerpt from "Romeo and Juliet," by William Shakespeare, Lord Capulet discourages Paris from marrying Juliet too quickly because she has not reached the age of fourteen yet. Thus, he claims that Paris must wait two years before giving his permission to marry her, even though Paris insists that younger girls than Juliet often get married and become mothers.

Dangling modifiers are separate from the word they modify, resulting in ambiguity, confusion or nonsense. In the example sentence, it is not clear which animal is walking the wire - whether the dog or the squirrel. Supposing the squirrel (which is about to fall) is walking the wire, a correct version of the sentence would be:
My dog waited for the squirrel to fall, which was walking the wire.
