  I wanted to add that when I say things calmly, I still say it firmly.  Also, do not stare her in the eye.  That is a challenge in the dog world and contributes to the energy level in a negative way.  
 The main thing is projecting an image to your dog that you are in control: calm, cool, and collected.
