Angry First haircut

6-month old Lexi went to the groomer (at the vet's) to get her first haircut. Daddy dropped her off at 9am. They still hadn't called by 1pm to say she was ready so we called them. The groomer was at lunch and the receptionist didn't know whether Lexi was done or not. By 2pm we were getting concerned about her not having eaten all day and went to get her. The groomer was already gone for the day!

My puppy doesn't even look like they cut her hair, except her head. I told them I wanted a "puppy cut" and the groomer seemed to know EXACTLY what I was talking about (they groom 16 yorkies on a regular basis). Her butt didn't get trimmed and it looks like they took a whole 1/8" off her body. I'm so mad. When she got picked up, she threw up in her cage. As soon as she got home, she had diarrhea for 10 mins. I tried giving her Nutrical - she wouldn't touch it. She hasn't taken a drink of water nor eaten her food. She seems like she's mad at us and just wants to sleep. I would have thought that since we made an appointment with the groomer, that she would cut her hair at the specified time and call as soon as she was done (like when we go to the hair salon for our haircut). Am I asking too much? Do you think 5 hours is too long? Lexi is not used to being in a cage...the spoiled brat has the run of the house. Also, do any of your furbabies get mad at you when you take them for haircuts? I will post "before" and "after" pictures when I get my film developed.
