The best way to keep it objective would be to tag what it IS and not
what it is CALLED. An outdoor shop is what some people call a shop (not
so controversial) which sells camping gear (probably not too
controversial) and clothing, safety equipment, ...
If we had a taxonomy of classes of things, mapped to a managed
vocabulary, we can say what the shop sells, at whatever level is
appropriate. Maybe at a high level, like "clothing", and maybe at a much
lower level like "rock climbing shoes"... whatever you want. Of course
each shop will sell multiple types of thing.

Its a bit more than simply allowed, although I do think dog friendly is
a bit subjective in the same way motorcycle friendly was.
Maybe you can tag the features that make it dog friendly, such a jar of
biscuits, water bowls provided for example.
Cafes are not somewhere you would normally classify as dog friendly,
non-assistance dogs are not allowed where food is being served, but dog
friendly pubs are fairly common.
