Ask your mother about an American Eskimo (they have hair, not fur, and are good for people who are allergic to dogs). Other than that, you could start doing chores around the house regularly without being asked and prove to her that you are responsible.

Show her by doing other things that you're responsible. Do things around the house or just do things without her asking. Show her you can be grown up and take care of shit that needs to be taken care of! And there are breeds of dogs that you can get when people are allergic. I used to be allergic to dogs and I got a Havanese.

You can't. If your mother believes you are irresponsible then that is her belief. There are probably things you could do to make her believe you're more responsible but it may be hard.
Another thing, if she's allergic to dogs, then that's more than a good reason to not allow them. Her decision is NO and her foot is down. To even try to change her mind would be disobeying her. Respect your mother and her decision. You can't have a dog & that's that.

There are breeds which are hypoallergenic. You just have to do your research. As far as being responsible goes you need to demonstrate that you are and not tell or insist you are. Your actions will determine what happens in the future. Lay off the pressuring as that will not get you a dog any time soon.
Do you own your own house? If not landlord/tenant agreements may mean that there are to be no pets and especially a dog. Also look at costs involved. This is not a decision to be made by her lightly. They're a lot of work and a lot of time.
Read up on dogs that are hypoallergenic and one day start talking about the breed. If she sees you investigated this on your own and know what's involved maybe you'll get your wish. Your actions speak louder than words in this instance. Accept whatever decision she makes in the future.

well if your mom is allergic.. thats not her fault and its a pretty good reason to say no.. but try asking for a small dog with short hair so maybe it wouldnt bother her as much, also do things for her pick up with out her asking do chores without her saying to and stuff like that, it will show responsibilty
