Does the sample given in post #1 represent the log file's structure one to one? I guess you don't have two alternating consecutive line types but quite some more ("watchdog"), and mayhap the pairs split, like some initial lines, and then some end lines.
Try this adapted - easily done by the interested person - version of my earlier proposal:
This would not help if the interesting lines are not adjacent. For that case, you'd need to identify a characteristic connecting the two lines.
