Dogs Bollocks is a Digital Web Development Agency in Knutsford, Cheshire, that uses the rather widely used vulgar slang phrase.

This has been defined elsewhere, correctly, as British slang for "the best".
The interesting thing about its possible origin is that the word cynosure, meaning "something brilliant that attracts attention" derives from two Greek words, Kynos (meaning "dog's" or "of the dog") + oura (meaning "tail"). This meaning of "the dog's tail" was used at one time to refer to the constellation Ursa Minor, which is bright and attracts attention.
So: did some classically-versed wag originate the phrase?

Outstanding - from 'stands out like dogs bollocks'. Can be shortend to just 'the bollocks' and maintain its meaning, not to be confused with 'a load of bollocks' which has the complete opposite meaning
'now I've gas flowed the head of my Yamaha it's the dog's bollocks'
'Ive tried those tytes on the Ducati but the're a load of bollocks
