Best Answer

Wizards' Patronuses can sometimes change shape. Severus Snape loved Lily (Evans) Potter and so his patronus changed shape to the same one as Lily, a doe.

It is very likely that Snape's patronus didn't actually change shape and was always a doe since he had loved Lily all his life.

Because when Snape met Lily he found a piece of her always with him and that was his nice side and she was best for him. So when she died Snape was so upset that his patrnous took of the shape of a doe.
