Pet Food Recall
The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) is maintaining a comprehensive website that provides detailed information about the following:

  • The Current Listing of Recalled Pet Food

  • Information for Pet Owners

  • Information for Veterinarians and Support Staff

  • General information about the topic

    If you suspect that your pet has been affected by a recalled food, the AVMA recommends you take the following three steps to help your veterinarian with your pet's diagnosis:

    • Retain food samples for analysis.
    • Document product name, type of product and manufacturing information.
        - Retain all packaging.
        - Identify date codes or production lot numbers.
        - Retain purchase receipts.
    • Document product consumption.
        - Dates products or products were fed.
        - Consumption and palatability history.
        - Time of onset of clinical signs.
        - Detailed dietary history (ie, all products fed and feeding methods).

Please contact us immediately, if you believe your pet has eaten any of the recalled foods, or if you have any questions about the symptoms, food involved, treatments required, or simply need additional information.

About Our Hospital
    Our name says it all! At All Creatures Veterinary Care we provide comprehensive veterinary care for all species of critter. From fur to feather, from scale to snail, we are equipped with the knowledge and resources to provide the best possible veterinary care for your family.
    Our hospital was established in 1991 by Dr. Kevin Fenton and Dr. John McConnell. Along with our dedicated staff we grew our hospital until it became one of the leaders of veterinary care in Coachella Valley. In mid 2006 we partnered with PetDrx to help manage the expansion of our facility and services so that we could continue to provide the highest level of care to our clients.
    Today we employ three full time veterinarians and 15 dedicated support team members. We provide a wide array of services including surgery, dentistry, comprehensive laboratory diagnostics, microchip identification, wellness packages, training, and much more. We are open 7:30am to 6:00pm Monday thru Friday and 9:00am to 4:00pm on Saturday. If you wish to contact us for any reason you can find all of our information on our Contact page. Thanks for visiting our web space and we hope to talk to you soon.

Services We Provide

 We offer a wide range of veterinary services to our clients and have provided a few dedicated informational pages for some of the most common. On our SERVICES page we feature veterinary surgery, dentistry, exotics, microchips, life stages, vaccinations, complimentary (alternative) medicine and more.

  Exotic Care

  Here at All Creatures Veterinary Care, Dr. Fenton provides care for a variety of exotic pets. He treats furry little pocket pets including Mice, Rats and Guinea pigs.  Reptiles such as Iguanas, Chameleons, Desert Tortoises and Snakes often make their way into exam rooms. Birds are also a common pet seen, ranging from small Parakeets to Parrots and Cockatoos. Dr. Fenton has treated Falcons, bighorn sheep, gazelles, and a zebra named “Fenton” residing at the Living Desert.

  Microchip Identification

Each year about 2 million pets are reported missing. Only 14% of dogs and 4% of cats who end up in shelters are returned to their rightful owners. 30-60% of lost pets in shelters are euthanized because they cannot be properly identified and returned to their owners. All Creatures Veterinary Care is offering a solution to this problem: the HomeAgain® Microchip Identification System. All pets should wear collar tags imprinted with their name and the phone number of their owner or veterinarian, but tags can come off. Tattooing pets with a number is another method of identifying pets, especially dogs. However, veterinarians and pet rescue experts say tattoos can blur over time, making them difficult to read, and they can be altered. A HomeAgain® microchip provides a permanent form of identification with a unique number that cannot be altered.

Community Outreach

  Foster Families & Rescue Agency's
We believe that helping those that help our critters is a worthwhile endeavor. So that we may best disperse our energy and resources, and to ensure that the animals we treat are receiving the best possible support care, we ask that all foster and rescue agencies interested in working with us make arrangements prior to arrival. We are happy to offer discounts to active foster and rescue agencies. Please contact our practice manager for further details.

Martha's Village and Kitchen
It all began in a small kitchen in a church parish hall. In 1990, Gloria Gomez and Claudia Castorena opened Martha’s Kitchen with the assistance of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Indio. At the time, they served 30 hot meals once a week. When the call for volunteer went out, church members of all faiths began to participate by assisting in meal preparation and food service. Some of the volunteers have been at Martha’s for over ten years.

In 1998, Tom and Rita Martin visited Martha's Kitchen, which was now serving 350 meals five days a week. The Martins shared the founders' vision of a comprehensive program that would help rehabilitate the homeless. Together, they chose Father Joe's Villages as the model and partner for their program.


Today, Martha’s Village & Kitchen is a thriving Village with a comprehensive "continuum of care" program for homeless families. Thanks to the Martins' gift of 10 acres of land and $250,000, a $1.5 million commitment to Martha’s by Dan Dunlap, an international philanthropist, and a $2 million HUD grant, Martha’s Village & Kitchen opened the doors of our $10 million Dan Dunlap Center in December, 2000. The Center offers all the necessary resources for people to regain self-sufficiency.
