Mary is training Gemini to wait at doorways!

By saying “wait” and tossing treats behind Gemini, Mary encourages him to turn away from the doorway. As he begins to pause on his own, she uses a clicker to mark the behavior and rewards him.

Notice that Mary isn't blocking the doorway. Gemini is choosing to wait on his own!

Once it's time to move through, Mary uses his release cue, “all done.”

Practice in both directions and at 15–30 different doorways! This helps your dog learn that “wait” applies to different doorways, not just the one where they first learned it.
