I was wondering how likely it is that a person growing up in a home with heavy smokers and being obese as a child results in pet/food allergies and asthma? There is no family history of these conditions, I think his mom has respiratory problems but that's probably from the smoking. Would there be any improvement with losing the weight and living for some years without being exposed to long term second hand smoke? He's skinny now and doesn't have any problems with asthma anymore. I'm worried about bringing pets into a home once we're married (dogs more than cats, he's fine with their pet cat right now). He was pretty bad with my dog (a golden retriever). Would a "hypoallergenic" one be ok (not a hairless one)?

Ok, let's break this down.
If he is allergic to your dog, the only way to find out if he is allergic to any other breed of dog is for him to either be checked by an allergist or try going around another breed of dog you are interested in owning.
His allergies may get better if he is out of the house of the smokers and losing weight if he is overweight. But you said he's thin.
Asthma and allergies can improve sometimes, by removing the problems.
Your best bet would be to have him go to an allergist several months after being out of his parents house, and getting allergy testing done.

I feel your pain. I've had asthma for 14 years now and have seen several doctors. The truth is, there is no known cure for asthma at the moment. But the symptoms can be prevented. It really depends on what causes your brother's asthma. Mine is usually dust and hot weather. But I think the universal method is using the control inhaler.
I cured my Asthma the natural way?

it may be the best thing to do if you wanted to be sure is to get him to meet one and see what his reaction would be over the next few days
