You bet the dog at a larger + number than the favorite is at on the - side.

Make sense?

So I bet $100 on each and make 5 if the dog wins and break even if the fave wins. So no way to lose for me? Is that the idea?

There really isn't any easier way to explain it.
The best thing you can do is put the #'s in Excel & see it for yourself.

Example
1.3 x 100 130 (The winning side in scenario #1)
-1.2 x 100 -120 (The losing side in scenario #1)

Then reverse the #'s (other team winning) to see what your risk & options are there.
