London street inspectors like William James Parr enforce a strict leash on dog fouling. Parr, Camden’s lone enforcer, tracks offenses from dawn to dusk, records statements, and sees most violators plead guilty. Camden’s high dog density accompanies his flawless record and a city without major bites to show for his efforts.
