Screaming Icon was an average dog on something his own weight, let alone pushing weight. Showed unbelievable heart & ran 3 falling-down scratches, the last one to win in 1:20, against a bigger dog ... and then gets put into a keep, while still healing, and gets put into a (now) Grand Champion who outweighed him by, I think, 4-5 lb. Very sad way to go for Sun Demon, who was a good solid dog at 38, but was not meant to fight in the low-to-mid 40s. Can't believe someone would be that heartless with his dogs, let alone that stupid with his money.
Ponchoback was simply an ace, but he ran into a helluva dog on #2, but still beat him in 2:36.
Back to your story, when all is said and done no one should get ripped off like you did.
Would never personally deal with anyone on a nationwide basis, with my money, unless they had a long, successful, proven career already.
Been ripped off a few times myself trusting "friends," and it's annoying, but that's the way the ball bounces too sometimes.
Best of luck in recovering from the loss, and still coming out better in the end.
