He could also high five. The story of the nickname...I was walking him one day, and a child was on the sidewalk and seemed very nervous but interested in Belmont. I said it was okay, Belmont wouldn't try to attack him, if he wanted to get closer. The child said, "He's a bone eater." I didn't hear him at first, or maybe he mumbled a little, so I asked him what he said. He said again, "He's a BONE EATER." So I like to think of Belmont as Belmont Ratface Scavenger Shadowmage, aka "Bone Eater."
