Dog's bollocks

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?

Chicago Dog

During the act of anal sex, a man will pull his penis out of another mans anus and insert the poop covered wiener into the armpit of the reciver. He will then continue to make love to the armpit untill an ejaculation is achieved. At this point the man will ejaculate into his hand and rub it onto his penis. To complete the Chicago Dog the man will insert his poopy, armpit, sperm covered wiener into the mouth of the reciever.
