In the end, although it hurts, electric is just a psychological barrier....if they want through it bad enough they can get through it. For a physical barrier, the non-climb horse fencing is probably the best thing going...but a pain to install and expensive (especially with class 3 galv):

I used to love hogs that would squeal just before they got to the electric when they ran through the fence. grin
