Dog Training Bible, by Sarah Richey does touch on the common and basic training tenets, of which there are many, depending on your dogs breed and history. This book is a thin ninety-nine pages for all that subject matter. However, the information does provided the known best practices in summary.
My issue with this read is that naming a book a "Bible" stating "Everything You Need to Know to Raise the Best Dog Ever from Puppy to Adult Using the Power of Positive Reinforcement", implies a very comprehensive review of the how-to's. To earn the level of a "Bible" the information should be an in-depth review full of and siting examples for a number of challenging training situations. Dog training is a difficult practice even for the best behaved dog. Throw in the dogs past in a shelter, age and unknown history, it can be daunting. The purchaser of this book is probably reaching out desperately for help and hope. This book is not trash but did not rise to the "Bible" level or justify the Amazon price of $18.00. This book should be in range of $7.00 and honestly state the summarized nature of the book.
I gave this book a single star for the reasons mentioned above.

3.5 This book is a good intro to dog training. It’s short, easy to read, and gives a large breadth of information as a primer to dog ownership. I can see how specific breeds might need further reading to supplement for their particular temperament and needs, but I thought it was a quick and straightforward way to dip your toe in the water of the different things to expect when adopting a dog. I would even say that this is a good book for people to read *before* they adopt a dog of any age to make sure they know what they’re getting themselves into in terms of time, money, and patience.

Short, simple, and to the point
It was a very short and easy read. Great guide for learning the basics of dog training. Perfect for folks who are beginners or folks who just need a good refresher.

very basic
This gives you the very basic information to begin training your dog at any age. I am going to have the whole family read it to ensure that we are all on the same page.

Great for new dog owners.
From socialization to problem behaviors. Many do's and don'ts as you raise the best dog. But this early and use it religiously with a new puppy.
