What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?

Dog Body Language is a great way to understand how your dog is feeling.  Did you know that if your dog yawns or licks its nose, generally it is an indication of stress?  Or if a dog looks away from your or another dog, they are actually trying to keep the peace.
