25.01.2022 Thank you for your continuing interest in the progress of The Great Nundle Dog Race. Our Nundle Public School Parents and Citizens Association will meet on Monday, August 3rd to consider the gathering restrictions in place and knowledge of the Destination Tamworth events team, and decide whether we go ahead with the Sunday October 25th 2020 postponed date, or whether we aim for our traditional first Sunday in May date (May 1st, 2021). https://www.nbnnews.com.au//dogs-could-still-be-let-out-i/

24.01.2022 Nundle Public School Parents and Citizens Association this week decided to postpone the planned 2020 Great Nundle Dog Race from Sunday October 25th to its usual timing the first Sunday in May, which is Sunday, May 2nd in 2021. This is based on current NSW government guidelines for no outdoor public gatherings of more than 20 people. We thank you for your continued interest and support in our event and look forward to welcoming you in 2021. Here's a pic of part of a 2000 The Sydney Morning Herald Good Weekend article from the Great Nundle Dog Race media archives.

05.01.2022 Northern River's good boy Buddy has run the equivalent of Sydney to the Gold Coast, without leaving his farm, to win a national working dog challenge! The t...hree-week competition saw dogs from each state wear GPS collars to track their distance, speed and time spent working. Buddy worked 98 hours during that time and ran 835kms to beat out 11 others to be named top dog. "I don't think of my dogs just as working dogs - they're like part of the family because they're on the team and help you every day," owner and Copmanhurst cattle farmer Glenda Rogan said. Show us the best helpers at your place!

05.01.2022 Something to make you smile.

03.01.2022 Winter's just weeks away, but no worries when you've got a fur coat and open fire.

02.01.2022 We hope all the kids are having a good start back into the school year.

Around 600 plus dogs, and 1500 humans attended the day, which saw Bill, a golden kelpie from Armidale, crowned top dog and an estimated $10,000 raised - which will go to the Nundle Public School P&C. Thank you to all participants - canine and human - and spectators for joining in/making the journey to picturesque Nundle for a great day of action and laughter. There were thrills and spills ...on and off the track and plenty of cheering in the Dog Singing, Dog Racing and multitude of other hilarious events. A huge congratulations to the team of volunteers for putting in so much effort behind the scenes - ensuring everyone had a safe and fun day. Here's to another terrific fundraiser event for the Nundle Public School - well done to the P&C! Thank you to all the sponsors and those who donated, time, ideas and input.
