Poison Ivy doesn't effect some does, but for dogs who are allergic to poison ivy it can appear cause anything from slight irritation of the skin. To developing a rash with/without blistering, hives and/or swelling.

If the dog is not allergic there won't be any signs of a reaction to the plant.

No, dogs and cats do not appear to be sensitive to the effects of urushiol, the allergenic oil found in poison ivy, poison oak and poison sumac as many humans are. The hair coat provides protection as well.

That's the good news. The bad news is that pets can transmit the urushiol on their hair coats to their human family and other surfaces (furniture, articles of clothing, and so on). This oil is extremely long-lived in the environment, so caution is advised for pets that roam outside. Wear gloves and bathe your pet well to reduce contamination with this allergenic oil.
