IRunOnFaith - 2017-05-24 1:01 PM Did you convey exactly what you wanted done with her in 60 days? Did they just think you wanted her ridden in the round pen?

Did you convey you wanted wet saddle blankets to be done in the pasture/pushing cows/loping barrels/ etc?

Did you ask for an end result? something that you wanted her to know after the 60 days? Or did you just say "Ride her for 60 days"? 

I find a lot of the time that some trainers vision for 60days is a lot different than others vision for one after 60 days. 

Maybe talk to them and see exactly what your 60 days got you. And maybe next time convey to them what you want to accomplish in those 60 days. 
 
Well---we thought we did. We wanted her ridden outside and some wet saddle blankets. Normal guiding and backing but nothing extreme. Told them that I did not want and counter arcing or trying to get her to work off leg pressure, we would handle that. They did tell us after 30 days that she had not been ridden outside much because of the weather which I understand. 

Maybe you are a more advanced "trainer" than you thought ;)
I understand you wanting her started sooner because of weather at your house but maybe they aren't the best fit for your needs. 
I would still give them a call and talk it out. If you two can shake hands per say after the conversation I would send people their way who just want horses broke. Maybe not the ones who need 60 days of wet saddle blankets. If you can't shake hands then I would just move on. No sense in shaming them in my opinion. Just don't send anyone their way again.
