I an NOT an Allergist, but I would think any one with a HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter would work well. Click here to Google:
Good luck.

The Dirt Devil Ultra Vision Bagless - My friends have this vac and 1 dog and 3 cats in the house. My husband is allergic (really allergic) to cats and most dogs and we can go over to their house and he doesn’t react at all!! It is $99.00 at Walmart. We borrowed it and it is fantastic!!!
Miele is another good one but they are very expensive worth it but around $300 -$400 new.
Good luck!!

Kirby vac is best…but it is not going to matter in dealing with a nut. Put the dog in another room or out of site like next door and say he is boarded. You will never win with someone of the mentality you describe. If it were a true condition, wahs the dog with dandruff shamppoo, people are allergic to dander, not hair.

Any good vacuum with a good filtration system, put at least a merv 8 filter on your furnace and put the guy on claritin, available at Sam’s Club under the generic for about $20 per at least a 100 count.

Any vacuum thats strong enough to suck up your fiance! Just kidding
Any vacuuum with a HEPA filter will do the trick. Also, concider having your air ducts cleaned once a year or everyother year and change the furnace filters every six months.
