Pet Rescues

Partnering with Local Pet Rescues

As part of our mission to help as many animals as possible, Coyne Veterinary Center has partnered up with various local pet rescues organizations to provide medical care to animals of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds. We consider community outreach to be one the most important things we do, and we look forward to expanding our services and bringing more pets and people together.

The South Suburban Humane Society

The South Suburban Humane Society has spent several decades helping pets in the South Suburbs find their forever homes. To give low-income families the opportunity to provide essential care for their pets, SSHS and Coyne Veterinary Services came together to establish South Suburban Low Cost Veterinary Services. We’re proud to be connected to this endeavor and a trusted partner of SSHS.

Helping Local Police & Fire Departments

Our fire and police departments and their hardworking canines deserve a little extra love. That’s why we offer free veterinary services to their four-legged partners and support them in all they do for the community.

We had a chick that had a kinked neck about 2 weeks into her life. Thought it might be wry so added some vitamins to no avail. She was our only buff orpington and I assumed that she'd either get better or pass but two weeks later she was still kicking and still had a kinked neck. Decided to take her to the vet really just to see if her quality of life could be okay and Dr. Payton checked her out and took great care of her, explained what she thought was the most likely cause, and gave us some anti inflammatory medicine to hopefully help relieve some tension and help her heal. She was kind enough to teach us how to administer droplet medication to a chick as well, which is not something I'd normally do but my wife quite likes this particular chick. She made it look a lot easier than it is.We didn't have to wait long, the rest of the staff was friendly, and we had no issues at this vet.The price was reasonable even though I realize it may be a bit silly to take a chick to the vet.I'd take birds here again and highly recommend Dr. Payton Smith
From the day we brought our bunnies, Peach and Poppy, home it's been a roller coaster. Both of our girls came to us very sick and were later diagnosed with Pasteurella. After many visits, we've gotten to know the incredible staff. Through every high, every setback, and every difficult decision, the entire team has guided us with kindness, compassion, and support.A huge thank you to Dr. Speak, who has been nothing short of amazing. She has been with us since the very beginning, caring for both Peach and Poppy. She walked alongside us through the heartbreaking loss of Peach with so much empathy and continues to guide us through Poppy's ongoing health journey. We truly couldn't have asked for a better veterinarian.Thank you to Dr. Zeledon for taking such wonderful care of Poppy during both her spay and her recent abscess removal surgery, and to Dr. Free for the exceptional care and reassurance during Poppy's recent ER visit.To every veterinary technician and staff member, thank you. Your kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals are evident in everything you do. You always take the time to answer our questions, ease our worries, and care for our pets as if they were your own. While we never imagined this would be our journey, we are incredibly grateful to have had such an amazing team guiding us every step of the way. You've never made us feel like just another appointment, and we will never forget the kindness and compassion you've shown us.
We and Finley loved Dr Newman! She was warm, loving and caring. And she taught us a great trick to cleaning Finley's ears! We've had Springers all our lives and she was the first to show us a better way. So grateful!
There are no words that could truly express how grateful I am to the entire team at this animal hospital.When my dog, Diamond, developed a life-threatening urinary blockage, they acted quickly and gave her the emergency care she desperately needed. They were compassionate, professional, and kept me informed every step of the way during one of the most stressful moments I’ve ever experienced.Because of their knowledge, dedication, and fast action, Diamond is home with me today recovering. They didn’t just treat my dog—they saved her life.Thank you to every veterinarian, technician, and staff member who cared for Diamond with such kindness and compassion. I will never forget what you did for my family. I highly recommend this hospital to anyone who wants the very best care for their pet.
