Sheriff K9 Retriever Patch — Order This Silver Star Design
Design S1451A at a glance
A silver-merrowed star in royal blue, silver, gold and white with a golden retriever head at its center. Lettering runs around the dog — the office name, a service-since year line, a one-word motto and a stacked K9 unit tag — giving a sheriff’s detection team a patch that names the unit and shows the dog that does the work.

About this golden retriever sheriff K9 star
Most K9 insignia default to a shepherd or a Malinois, so a retriever immediately sets this unit apart — and suits the detection, search and community-outreach roles sporting breeds often fill. The gold coat stands out against a royal blue field, and the silver star keeps the patch unmistakably sheriff. White lettering holds its contrast even at a 3" shoulder size.
Order it as shown or customize it: redraw the retriever from a photo of your own dog, letter the star with your office name and service year, or swap the motto for the dog’s name. 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.

Sheriff K9 retriever patch questions
Can you redraw our own dog instead of the retriever?
Yes. Send a clear photo of your K9 and we redraw the head with its markings and ear set at no art charge. The proof shows the likeness before production.
Can the motto line carry the dog’s name?
Yes. The motto line and the unit tag both restitch to your wording, so many offices put the dog’s name there.
Can we get a smaller version for the dog’s vest?
Yes. Quote a 2.5" version alongside the shoulder size and both come from the same art, so the colors match.
Will the white lettering stay readable on royal blue?
Yes. White on royal blue is a high-contrast pairing and holds legibility down to about 3" overall.
How do I mark changes on the star?
In the quote form, open the markup tool, draw on the retriever or the lettering, and pin notes. The edited star is attached when you send the quote.
