Replacement leg ideas for antique dresser, please

Cindy
by Cindy
This dresser had a leg broken off. I re-attached it but it seems a little too wobbly. I'm looking for suggestions for replacement legs. Not against shortening the whole dresser. Thanks.
Nice old dresser without a lot of damage
Except for a really wobbly, and previously broken leg. It's been re-attached by drilling a hole in the dresser and the leg, inserting a wooden dowel and wood glue. Still seems to unstable. I wouldn't be against somehow shortening the whole thing. Thanks.
