Harry Potter's father, James, was an Animagus: he could turn into a stag. Harry Potter's patronus was therefore a stag. "Prongs" was James Potter's nickname when he was at school, on account of his antlers as a stag. James Potter is now dead, but  

A patronus is something made of happiness which could ward off Dementors (the guards at Azkaban, the wizard prison). Dementors suck the happiness out of you, so a patronus made of happiness helps. So does chocolate, for some reason.
