The poem explains how everything has gone wrong for poor old Bill the Bullocky finally he gets bogged 9 miles from Gundagai, then the dog shat in the tuckerbox. Probably the only dry spot near the flooded creek.
Old Answer:
The meaning of 'the dog shat in the tuckerbox" is that the dog (a four legged domesticated animal descended from the wolf) defecated into (as opposed to beside or underneath) a container of food (consumable items).
Phrases carrying a similar meaning would be things such as:
'Lassie did number twos inside the lunchbox' OR 'The poodle had a bowel movement within the picnic basket.'

What is the famous landmark in Gundagai?
The landmark is the Dog on the Tuckerbox, an historical monument situated near Gundagai in southern New South Wales, Australia.Celebrated in Australian folklore, poetry, and song as being "nine miles from Gundagai", the Dog on the Tuckerbox sits approximately 5 miles, or eight kilometres, from Gundagai. Gundagai's Dog on the Tuckerbox originated out of an incident from the mid-1800s, when some travellers' bullock carts became stuck in the mud near Gundagai. The bullockies were unable to free their carts, and everything ended up coated in mud. The romanticised version of the story goes that the bullocky departed for help, and the dog stayed to faithfully guard his master's tuckerbox (food box). However, the reality is that the dog was in fact relieving itself directly above the tuckerbox, which was the only thing not submerged by the mud.
