Horses
Walton Goggins does not have any reported pets but he is often seen horseback riding for both work and in his spare time. He mentioned in a 2021 Instagram post that he grew up with them.
Walton Goggins’ passion for horseback riding traces back to his childhood, inspired by his barrel racer mom who introduced him to the joy of riding at age five. Although his son started riding four years ago, it was only recently that the two had their inaugural ride together. During this memorable outing, they took turns leading and concluded the experience by enjoying a casual walk and talk. Goggins credits this significant day to @summer_lbf and Robin for accommodating him in the ride, marking it as a special chapter in his ongoing love affair with horseback riding.
