About this police K9 Malinois hexagon design
Malinois handlers can usually spot a generic working-dog patch at a glance, so this design is drawn as a Belgian Malinois from the start. Brown and gold carry the head, navy fills the night sky, and the crescent moon and mountains give the scene depth without crowding it. The hexagon cut keeps the composition compact, which helps it hold detail at sleeve size.
Put your department in the top line, keep the canine services line or change it to K9 unit, or redraw the head to match your own dog. 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.

Police K9 Malinois patch questions
Can you redraw the head to look like our dog?
Yes. Send a clear photo of your dog's head and we redraw it into the hexagon at no art charge — the proof shows the result before anything is produced.
Can the canine services line say K9 unit instead?
Yes. Both lettering lines restitch to your wording — department name on top, unit or program line below.
Is there a subdued version for vests?
Yes. A black-and-tan build works well on tactical K9 vests, and you can quote it with the full-color version in one request.
What size fits a K9 harness panel?
Most harness panels take a 2.5" to 3" patch with hook backing. We simplify the mountain line slightly at that size and show it on your proof.
How do I mark changes on this design?
Use the markup tool in the quote form — circle the dog, moon or lettering, pin notes and switch colorways. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
