while I can't see a problem with a tag for each pet, it may still make
more sense to have a pets tag and just namespace species/related things
under it similar to the access tag. use cases I can think of:
* pets=no | no matter what, no pets
* pets=yes | open to all or at least most pets other than specified
examples such as...
* pets:dogs=no | dogs that are pets are not allowed, a guide dog does
not necessarily count as a pet or at least, I don't think of one as
being a pet.
* pets:cats=1 | only one cat allowed
this does still make it vague in the sense that if only one cat is
allowed, is it per party or per person, but this probably could be made
more specific with another tag namespaced under pets (my mind is blank,
I haven't eaten yet. however this feels like the best approach to cover
most situations). this may also be useful for things like
water-bowls/treats for pets as mentioned elsewhere here; for example: my
bank offers dog biscuits for dogs, the train station used to offer a
water-bowl as well, but I haven't put much thought into seeing if it's
there after the take over by LNER.

Yes, some do accept cats, and there are many cat owners who would love
to be able to take their
cat on holiday with them. So it would be nice if we had something a
little more flexible than
dog=yes/no.
Obviously dogs=no will only apply to pets, registered assistance
dogs are covered by the law of the country, in the UK a
hotel/pub/restaurant is not allowed to refuse assistance dogs. I
assume the same is true throughout the EU.
I believe that, in the UK, NO business can refuse assistance dogs (but
I could be wrong). It's also
the case in the UK that non-assistance dogs are NOT legally prohibited
from pubs and
restaurants but only from food preparation areas: it's the owner's
decision as to whether or not
dogs are allowed where food is served and sold. See
https://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/our-resources/kennel-club-campaigns/be-dog-friendly/
Many shops and a few restaurants in my town display a sign somewhere
saying that dogs
are allowed.
