There is an instance in the reference for ImageIdentify were a category is specified. Here it is: 

ImageIdentify[Image, Entity["Species", "Infraspecies:CanisLupusFamiliaris"]]

It says dog (species specification). Not knowing this instance, how would I find this command?

Even though knowing this command from the reference I have no idea how to figure it out. I tried many things and at least found "Infraspecies" by using EntityClassList["Species"]. But how do I get further to the mentioned category?

There's no real exact method for this. I would recommend using Interpreter:

Interpreter["Animal"]["Dog"]

You can also use "free form input". To do this, type Ctrl+= and then type "dog". If you hit enter, Mathematica will try to interpret whatever you just gave it.

  • $\begingroup$ Honestly? You just have to get a feeling for what kinds of entities there are. The reason google is so useful is because you have a good idea of what kinds of results you can reasonably expect from it. You develop that from experience with it. reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/InterpretingStrings.html $\endgroup$
