Non-drowsy calming for anxious dog & a harness that won't rub?
A pheromone collar, such as the Adaptil collar, may help decrease anxiety. Gradual desensitization is also strongly recommended. Calming chews, such as Composure chews (by VetriScience) may help but they are not "magic pills". You will need to modify her behavior. This may require the assistance of a certified trainer.

My puppy has separation anxiety. Diffuser or sound soothing: which helps?
Poor Cleo! There are many things you can do to help get Cleo feeling more comfortable and help control her anxiety. It’s great that you are being proactive about preventing issues in future! Visit the following links for some good tips on training http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=T&C=33&S=0 ,https://healthcareforpets.com/videos . Also visit the following link to learn more about Adaptil, a synthetic pheromone that is available in a diffuser and spray form that promotes calm feelings in dogs, and can often be useful in cases of anxiety http://www.adaptil.com . I’m assuming this is what your vet was referring to, or something similar. It reminds puppies of a mother dog, and helps them to feel more secure. Soothing sounds in the back ground can be used in addition to this. Try something like the following : https://www.amazon.ca/Through-Dogs-Ear-Canine-Companion/dp/1591796423 I strongly recommend you speak to a trainer who uses positive reinforcement or a veterinary behaviorist to help give Cleo her best chance at becoming a well adjusted, happy dog. See the following link for more information on that http://www.dacvb.org/resources/for-the-public/ . Good luck!

Best e-collar brands & how to condition for puppy chewing/recall?
Sport dog is a good brand with several levels of correction. This will not be effective for chewing unless you are always there to correct her. If she chews when you are not home there is no way to know or enforce or correct this. For any training you have to ask them to perform something they know, such as sit. If they do not do it you push the button. If they do well then you reward them. Keep them on a leash while training. When you ask them to come, you pull the leash. If there is no interest then you correct them. They will learn to associate the two things together quickly to respond

My dog has separation anxiety. How can I understand their behavior?
What a cute pup! In terms of separation anxiety, it will depend on how severe your dog suffers from this issue. Some cases may be managed with over the counter products such as an Adaptil collar or diffuser and calming supplement like Composure Chews for Dogs and behavior modification, but if severe I would recommend discussing medicaiton with your vet. You can read more about separation anxiety at https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951949 I am not sure what you mean by "what are all the dog behaviors", if you are interested in understanding your dog I recommend the book "Decoding Your Dog" by Debra Horwitz.
