As the sentence "The quick brown fox…" is in English it would not make much sense to mess with another language, would it?
…and anyway people can invent such strange names to dogs that it is sometimes hard to tell what language the name is in.

Hello silva, submit the whole phrase of the name if you have not already done so. If you still have problems send me your solution in PM.

I have a bad habit of lying on my side while using computer. Sometimes it can be beneficial.

Hi Konubixe,

It seems you have found the correct place of the dogs name, but this is not enough!
The rest of the message hints that the dog's name is still encrypted with a specific cipher. :icon_wink:

Greetings, Bernd

Every time I submit a solution, a popup shows "Es ist ein Fehler beim Überprüfen deiner Lösung aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es später erneut, und kontaktiere uns, falls dieses Problem wiederholt auftritt."

The trial counter is not decremented.

Also, ich habe jetzt 16 oder 21 Buchstaben übrig. Je nach dem wie man die Anleitung liest, das letzte Wort ist im Englischen doch recht ungewöhnlich.

Nur mit den 16 chars komme ich nicht sinnvoll weiter.

EDIT:

Super - gelöst, hatte die "Wartezeit-Meldung" übersehen.
