'Going to see a man about a dog' is an often used a euphemism in Great Britain. It is most often used when telling someone you are going to the toilet. It has also been used to describe meeting a woman for sex i.e - when you replace the 'man' and 'dog' in the sentence with their opposites 'woman' and 'cat' (but in this case we use another word meaning cat, 'pussy') so you end up with 'going to see a woman about a pussy.'

Going to see a man about a dog

Slang used while referring to going to have a drink down the pub.

Most commonly used in the North East of England. Due to it being originally derived from people who drink/drank the ex-Newcastle brewed alchohol, Newcastle Brown Ale.

The sentance itself is actually printed on the label of the newer bottles of Newcastle Brown.
