There are zero day time hour dog parks in urban Hamilton and I've talked with other dog owners that have issues with shift work that can't make the scheduled off-hours. There is also an issue with over crowding at the beginning of the off leash hours.

Here is a map I made for dog parks in Toronto, blue being all hours, pink being off hours.

What kills me about the Hill Street park is the city's flat out refusal to consider fencing it in completely, considering there is a superior park for kids on the other side of the train track. There has been a series of excuses rolled out with the most recent being a lack of parking, for a dog park. It isn't an issue for me, but I know people that have dogs that will follow scents. Dogs have run out in the past, particularly after the ass that drives by at 5km/h with his four dogs yipping out the window.
