“One man and his dog”, shed is when they separate a sheep from the flock.

1A One in 1 down (9) C?L?S?I?? [1D is CHINA]

Looks like CELESTIAL ?

5D Reading a European title so --- (8) ?IT?R?T?

Looks like anagram of TITLE and? to give LITERACY ?

CELESTIAL = Chinese person

5D is an anagram of TITLE, E (European), A and R (for “reading”, one of the three Rs).
