Howdy, my name is Robert A. Early D.V.M. I'm married and have 5 children. My two youngest are still at home. One is in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M as a third generation Aggie and the other is a sophomore in high school. I went to Texas
A&M; '73, '76 and '77. My father was '41. I enjoy flying and received my Private Pilots license in 1976. My family and I enjoy fishing and especially have had fun fishing in Alaska over the years. I have enjoyed practicing for 47 years in large animal, small animal, some exotic, emergency medicine and serving as a Federal Veterinary Officer. The first 28 years I owned my private practice and was an Approved Training Center for students preparing for agricultural occupations through educational cooperative training in vocational agriculture. In addition to volunteering primarily for the Linden-Kildare Chapter of the FFA, but surrounding Chapters as well, I am currently in the
White Oak Chapter Alumni and Booster Club.
I was heavily involved in Cass County 4-H from 1987 to 2005 and have continued to work with youth through the Boy Scouts of America. I am currently the Scoutmaster for Troop 207 and Committee Member for Pack 207 with corresponding training. I also have additional training in veterinary medicine such as, but not limited to Endocrinology, Neurology, Cardiology, Theriogenology and Emergency Management including extensive FSIS in public health and USDA Farm Service Agency security literacy.
