Description
This Aberdeen Police embroidered patch was designed for the Aberdeen Police Department’s K-9 Narcotics Detection Unit, featuring a detailed golden detection dog surrounded by cannabis leaves — a specialized unit identification patch that communicates the K-9 team’s narcotics enforcement role with direct, symbol-driven clarity on a bright royal blue twill base.
Shape & Base: Wide shield shape with a notched upper center indentation and rounded point at the bottom on bright royal blue twill fabric with a gold yellow merrowed border edge. The vivid royal blue base provides strong contrast for the gold dog figure, green cannabis leaves, and navy and red lettering elements throughout the design.
Top Section: “ABERDEEN” is embroidered in bold navy blue block lettering across the upper field, arching slightly to follow the shield’s upper contour with clean contrast against the royal blue twill. Directly below, “POLICE” is embroidered in large bold gold block lettering — significantly larger than the city name — creating a strong two-line department identification with “POLICE” as the dominant text element in the upper field.
Center: A detailed golden Labrador Retriever or similar detection dog breed occupies the center field in a standing or alert pose — rendered in warm gold, tan, and brown thread with good coat texture detail including fur direction variation across the body, head, and ears. The dog faces slightly to one side with a calm, alert expression appropriate for a working detection animal. Surrounding the dog figure on both sides, large green cannabis leaf fronds are embroidered in rich green thread — two or three full leaf sprays extending outward from behind the dog figure — providing immediate visual identification of the unit’s narcotics detection specialization. A red embroidered text banner with “NARCOTICS DETECTION” in bold lettering crosses the lower center field just below the dog figure, rendered in bright red thread against the blue base with strong contrast and clear unit role identification.
Bottom Section: “K-9” is embroidered in bold navy blue block lettering centered in the lower field beneath the narcotics detection banner, completing the unit designation with clean, concise identification at the patch base.
Embroidery Quality: The royal blue base with gold dog, green cannabis leaves, and red narcotics text creates a vivid, high-impact multi-color composition with strong visual hierarchy — department name at top, detection dog at center, unit role at bottom. The golden Labrador figure achieves good coat texture and body proportion detail through directional thread variation. The cannabis leaf fronds show individual leaflet definition through layered green satin-stitch work. The red narcotics detection banner text is bold and legible. The gold merrowed border reinforces the gold “POLICE” lettering for a cohesive, professional finish suited for active K-9 unit uniform wear.
This design showcases the K-9 unit identity and narcotics detection symbol precision Owl Badges delivers for custom police department embroidered patches for specialized units across the United States.
