Probably you won't get anyone to patch it, as it's on the edge of the tread. Not enough substrate/layers under that point to retain a plug. If you can find a shop willing, you can patch it from inside - a plug just won't work on that.

Its too close to the edge, you will have a hard time finding somebody that want to do the job, for reasons that it will probably fail and is possible liability if you crash as a result.
