Design S1640A at a glance
A custom-cut patch with a gold merrowed edge, showing a Doberman head set against mountains with a star behind it. Navy, maroon and gold make up the whole palette. Lettering carries a K9 unit name, a founding year, a one-word callsign, a place line and a police line — five fields that all restitch to your wording.

About this Doberman mountain and star K9 design
Shepherds and Malinois dominate K9 insignia, so a Doberman head makes this patch stand out on any wall of unit patches. The mountains give it a sense of place and the star ties it back to the badge. Maroon is the surprise here: paired with navy and gold it gives a heritage, almost collegiate feel that a standard blue patch doesn't have.
Order it as shown or customize it: put your unit name, year and callsign in the lettering fields, redraw the dog as another breed, or trade the mountains for your own skyline or landmark. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Doberman police patch questions
Can the Doberman be changed to our dog's breed?
Yes. Send a photo and we redraw the head as a shepherd, Malinois, Lab or any breed at no art charge, keeping the mountains and star behind it.
What goes in the five lettering fields?
Anything you like: unit name, founding year, a callsign or motto word, a place line and an agency line are the usual set. Each restitches to your wording on the 4-hour mockup.
Can we drop some lettering for a cleaner look?
Yes. We can remove any field on your proof; the dog, mountains and star balance well with just a unit name and agency line.
Is a subdued version available for tactical kit?
Yes — tan, OD green and blackout builds keep the layout in low-contrast thread. Preview each in the markup tool before you request a quote.
How do I mark up changes?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle the Doberman or any lettering field, pin your notes and pick a colorway. The marked-up patch attaches to the quote.
