This famous bronze statue, a minor landmark on the Hume Highway on the Sydney side of Gundagai, was unveiled by then Prime Minister Joseph Lyons in 1932 as a tribute to outback pioneers. There are highway services, as well as an interpretive walk located here. Count on spending 30 minutes or so.
The Dog on the Tuckerbox is an Australian historical monument and tourist attraction, located at Snake Gully, approximately eight kilometres from Gundagai, New South Wales as described in the song of the same name.

Inside the Visitor Centre there is a small room that exhibits Frank Rusconi's marble masterpiece. This marble model of a cathedral took Rusconi, the sculptor of the Dog on the Tuckerbox, 20 years to build, by putting together 20,948 pieces of marble collected from the state of New South Wales. This little extravagance is well worth the small fee.
This museum exhibits tools and agricultural machines from the area.
