Don't know of another way to explain this other than what I have observed with my lab. Basically, given enough room to get up to speed a dog can cross the 'warning area', cross the fence, cross the 'warning area' on the other side, and never get shocked. Because of the time delay before the correction, as far as the collar knows the dog entered the warning area and then left it before actually crossing the fence. I watched Roscoe do it several times when the dog across the road would stand in the field at the end of the driveway and provoke him. Two or three long, running strides, and maybe a second or two, and he was cross the fence and gone withour so much as a yelp from getting zapped. Problem was he was never running or in a hurry coming back so he'd get zapped and not want to cross back or know what to do not to get zapped. Got a friend that said the way to work around that was to run three strands of fence, far enough apart that they didn't cancel each other out, in areas like that. He said when his got caught up between the three strands he didn't know which way to run. From that point on said the dog woldn't even go back to that area, much less try to leave the yard.
Never hooked mine back up after Roscoe crossed the last time and got in a fight with the other dog that tore up his collar so I can't say hopw it would work in the ong run from personal experience. That said I've got a neighbor that keeps collars on three dogs that ran free for years, and two goats, and unless the fence goes down for some reason or the collar batteries die, you never see them outside the fence boundries.

His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
