Then we went to the therapy, the therapist is his wife, she seemed like she knew she was doing, 30 min and we were done, it didn´t cause Ofelia any discomfort, she is recommending 10 sesions of therapy. We tried to write down as many terms as possible to tell my vet tomorrow.

So, yeah not really liking this vet, lets see what my trusted vet says tomorrow, thanks for being here for us.

The surgery he did should have been done by an orthopedic specialist and you may need to go get a consult from one or let one see what the vet did. I have heard terrible story's of regular vets doing those surgerys and them having to be redone by a specialist. Being overweight would not cause that and it sounds like he is just doing things to pad his pocket book. X-rays would not have shown LP or the torn ligament.
