They were actually purpose built, they lock into a horses stirrup in front of the heel, and the point was for riding through high grass.

Finally putting a deposit down for a puppy with a legit licensed breeder. So many charlatans who have jumped on the pandemic bandwagon.

A Wire Haired Dachshund incoming.
Awwww ... that really does make a day a good one. Lovely! Do you have a name in mind? What about Scarface, as in "say hello to my little friend!!!" ... upon which you can pick him up and wield him like a rifle! Pew! Pew!
