Royal Blue Police K9 Patch — Order This Shepherd and Bone Shield
Design S1810A at a glance
A shield with a royal blue merrowed edge and a German shepherd head paired with a bone. Lettering carries the town name, the police department line, the K9 unit line and a founding year. Royal blue and light blue give the patch a brighter, friendlier tone than most K9 insignia, while tan and black keep the dog's coat realistic.

About this shepherd and bone K9 shield design
The bone is a small touch that changes the mood of a K9 patch: it signals the partnership and the reward side of the work, not just apprehension. That makes this shield a favorite for units that spend as much time at schools and community events as on deployments. The two blues keep it clearly police, and the shield cut works on any standard uniform sleeve.
Put your department name and founding year in the lettering, redraw the shepherd from a photo of your dog, or replace the bone with a ball or tug toy. 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.

Royal blue police K9 patch questions
Can the bone be swapped for a ball or toy?
Yes. Replace it with a ball, tug or any reward item your dog works for — redrawn at no art charge.
Can the founding year be removed?
Yes. Any lettering line can be removed or reworded, including the year, and the layout rebalances on your proof.
Is this too playful for a duty uniform?
Not in practice. The shield cut and department lettering keep it official, and many units wear it daily. For a more formal look, switch to navy and gold.
Can you match the dog to our K9?
Yes. Send a photo and we redraw the head with your dog's coloring and ear set. The free mockup arrives within 4 hours.
Can we order handout patches for kids?
Yes. Iron-on patches from the same art are popular giveaways at school visits, and the 10-piece minimum keeps a small batch easy.
