Puzzle 7

This is an annoying paragraph, in which you try and work out what is unusual about it. This paragraph has a quandary though. A solitary word has found a way to slink into this paragraph, to fox your fun, by going against all my jazzy plans. What is that word? Don't try to run a utility to assist you, that would spoil all of my attempts to absorb all of your avid skills in this mind blowing prank.

Puzzle 8

Alex's Dogs – Logic Puzzles

Alex is a keen dog admirer and over the years has had a number of dogs.

Alex has had an Alsatian, a Dalmatian, a Poodle, and a Great Dane, but not necessarily in that order.

Alex had Jamie first. The Dalmatian was an adored pet before the Great Dane. Sammy, the Alsatian, was the second dog Alex loved. Whitney was owned before the Poodle. Jimmy was not a Great Dane.
Can you match the dogs to their names and find the order in which Alex had them?
