It gets 3/4 of a beat.

If you count in 4/4 meter, and the Dotted eighth note is on the first beat, it's count would be: 1 & 2 & etc.

The action of the dot increases the value of the eighth note by half it's value. Half the value of an eighth note is a sixteenth note.

So a dotted eighth note = eighth note + sixteenth note

A good website that illustrates how dots work is: http://www.8notes.com/school/theory/dots_and_ties.asp
