https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/app-pgdump.html

-T table
--exclude-table=table

Do not dump any tables matching the table pattern. The pattern is
interpreted according to the same rules as for -t. -T can be given more
than once to exclude tables matching any of several patterns.

When both -t and -T are given, the behavior is to dump just the
tables that match at least one -t switch but no -T switches. If -T
appears without -t, then tables matching -T are excluded from what is
otherwise a normal dump.
