How about one of those long overhead leads that the leash slides along, those can be rather long if I remember right.
A friend had one of the buried and her dog learned if it ran it would only get a brief shock and it was free. The wireless transmitter style continues the correction until they are back in range or until the 30 second time limit is up. These work by not shocking as long as they get a signal. One they are out of range of the signal the correction occurs.
