Try to avoid those play activities that get Lulu riled up to that point. When she goes for your face, stop play and stand up with a stern "No!". You can also turn your back on her until she stops. Be firm and be consistent. Offer praise and reward when she complies. Consider obedience training to teach basic commands and appropriate behavior. Search for classes at your local veterinary clinic or pet store.
