Default Wendy says her "Rocking chair rocks back too far"

This old rocking chair rocks so far back it feels like you'll go over

so I
can see the wood has worn away a good bit on the bottom at the point it
hits
the floor. There is a dowel at this spot holding the bottom to the leg. Is
there a way to beef the bottom up or will if have to be taken apart and
reworked? I imagine when this chair was new, it was fine and has since
worn
too much wood off from rocking. https://www.homeownershub.com/img/8n

Too much time on one's hands frequently leads to these kinda problems.
