Celebrated in Australian folklore, poetry and song, the dog on the Tuckerbox, a monument to the pioneers of the Riverina region, has become an icon of the past of Australia.

A version of the dog's role in pioneer times, the dog is kept tuckerbox his master and other possessions, when he sought the help of being stuck in a river crossing. The teacher, a bullocky or driver of a team of bull, never returns, but the dog continues to keep tuckerbox until his death.

Tucker is an Australian word for food, so that the dog kept foodbox symbolized subsistence (in need of protection) of the pioneers of the region.

The story of the faithful dog is most likely a fictionalized version. The refrain of the original verse of the dog allegedly was:

Then the dog sat on the trunk-nine miles from Gundagai Tucker.

But it was said that the "real" home, it was not 'sit' the dog did. (Think of a word of one syllable beginning with "s" that rhymes with "sat" – consider the evils that plague bullocky -. And think what happens to the other evil, in a manner of speaking , top it off)

These lines of verse are part of the story written by an unknown poet writing under the name Bowyang Yorke and published in the Gundagai Times in the 1880s. One version was written by journalist and poet Jack Gundagai Moses.

Both versions speak of a bullock team is mired in a river crossing nine miles from Gundagai toughness with the dog "sit" on the tuckerbox.

The history of dogs and tuckerbox was included in the song where the dog sits on the Tuckerbox (five miles from Gundagai) by Australian composer Jack O'Hagan who also wrote along the road to Gundagai and when a boy from Alabama meets girl from Gundagai. (O'Hagan had never been to Gundagai.)

The monument on the dog's Tuckerbox was unveiled in 1932 by the then Prime Minister of Australia, Joe Lyons, the 103rd anniversary of the Australian explorer Charles Sturt in 1829 crossing the Murrumbidgee River Riverina.

The monument was the creation of Gundagai Rusconi Frank Mason, another of whose works, a masterpiece of marble, is set out in the city.

Gundagai, 386 km from Sydney, is located along the Hume Highway, which runs inside the Sydney to Melbourne.

Part of the poem Bowyang Yorke about the bill Bullocky:

As I was coming down Conroy’s Gap, I heard a maiden cry; ‘There goes Bill the Bullocky, He’s bound for Gundagai. A better poor old beggar Never earnt an honest crust, A better poor old beggar Never drug a whip through dust.’ His team got bogged at the nine mile creek, Bill lashed and swore and cried; ‘If Nobby don’t get me out of this, I’ll tattoo his bloody hide.’ But Nobby strained and broke the yoke, And poked out the leader’s eye; Then the dog sat on the trunk-nine miles from Gundagai Tucker.

The well-known in Australian folklore, poetry and song, the dog on Tuckerbox, a monument to the pioneers region Riverina, Australia became an icon of the past.

One version of the role of dogs in pioneer times that the dog was protecting his master tuckerbox and other property, until he sought help from being bogged down in midstream. Master, bullocky or ox team driver, never returned, but the dog continues to guard tuckerbox before his death.

Tucker the Australian word for food, so foodbox dog guard symbolized the existence (which need to be protected), pioneers of the region.

History faithful dog, it is possible to romanticize version. Refrain from allegedly original poem about the dog was:

Then the dog sat on the box nine miles from Tucker Gundagai.

But it was said that the "actual" original, it was not "SB", that dog did. (Think of monosyllabic words beginning with "S", which rhymes with "SB" – believe that the misfortune had happened to bullocky -. And I think that happens to other misfortune, his manner of speaking, top)

These lines of verse are part of the history written by an unknown poet, writing under the name Bowyang York Times and published in Gundagai in 1880. A later version was written by journalist and poet Gundagai Jack Moses.

Both versions say about the team being bogged down by the bullock ferry nine miles from Gundagai and dog hard "sitting" on tuckerbox.

History of Dogs and tuckerbox was enshrined in song, where the dog sits on Tuckerbox (five miles from Gundagai) Australian composer Jack O'Hagan who also wrote on the road to Gundagai and the boy from Alabama meets the girl from Gundagai. (O'Hagan had never been to Gundagai.)

Dog Monument at Tuckerbox was opened in 1932, then Prime Minister of Australia, Joe Lyons, the 103rd anniversary of the 1829 crossing the Australian explorer Charles Sturt of the Murrumbidgee River in the Riverina.

Monument to the creation of a stonemason Frank Rusconi Gundagai, one of whom works, Marble Masterpiece, will be on display in the city.

Gundagai, 386 km from Sydney, lies along the highway that runs Hume away from Sydney to Melbourne.

Part of the poem Bowyang York Bullocky Bill:

As I was coming down Conroy’s Gap, I heard a maiden cry; ‘There goes Bill the Bullocky, He’s bound for Gundagai. A better poor old beggar Never earnt an honest crust, A better poor old beggar Never drug a whip through dust.’ His team got bogged at the nine mile creek, Bill lashed and swore and cried; ‘If Nobby don’t get me out of this, I’ll tattoo his bloody hide.’ But Nobby strained and broke the yoke, And poked out the leader’s eye; Then the dog sat on the box nine miles from Tucker Gundagai.
