About the K9 dog head security guard patch
Handlers and dog teams want a patch that shows the dog, and this layout gives the shepherd head almost the whole center. Shaded tan and brown thread builds depth in the fur and muzzle, the black field makes the dog stand out, and gold lettering with a matching gold edge ties the round patch together on black or khaki uniforms.
Each arc holds up to 40 characters for your company or team name and the handler role. Edit the wording in the TruePatch Designer, or request a quote and our art team lays it out and recolors the dog to match your breed. The stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and production only starts once you approve it.

Yes. The dog head can be recolored for a black shepherd, malinois or lab, or replaced with your own K9 emblem. Note the breed in your quote request.

The embroidered price is $3.00 to $20.00 each depending on quantity, from a 10-piece minimum. There is no charge for setup, digitizing or art.
