A club setting for serious goals
Eagle Point handlers can come to Medford to see the standards of the sport and learn from teams who are actively training and trialing.
Eagle Point working dog owners can connect with Medford-based RVSC training for IGP sport work.
For handlers in Eagle Point, finding a club environment matters. Schutzhund / IGP is not something most teams can develop well through videos or backyard practice alone. Rogue Valley Schutzhund Club meets in Medford and gives Eagle Point handlers access to structured club training.
Training focuses on the dog’s ability to think, work, recover and stay clear under pressure. That includes methodical tracking, engaged obedience and protection work that is built around control rather than chaos.

IGP is as much about the handler as the dog. Club training gives you feedback on timing, rewards, corrections, leash handling and clarity.
The sport should build confidence, teamwork and control. RVSC encourages responsible working dog training, not shortcut protection work.
Yes. The regular training location is in Medford, but Eagle Point handlers are welcome to contact the club and learn how to visit.
Depending on the team, training may involve tracking, obedience foundations, engagement, control, retrieves, environmental confidence and protection evaluation.
No, but you do need to be willing to listen, watch and learn the sport’s expectations before jumping into advanced work.
Contact the club before coming out so we can point you in the right direction and help you understand what to bring.
