Where did term Dog Robber come from?

The term, "dog robber," originated in the British Army as a slang name for an Officer's personal orderly who used the foreleg bone of a dog to work the polish into his Officer's boots. This particular bone was selected because it did not splinter and had a very smooth surface. This bone was also used in a slightly modified form as an apple corer by Native Americans and early white settlers. I have one of these apple corers in my collection.
