Chances are they will throw it back up.
Or have salty breath..... If your dog ingest to much salt water she will most likely throw up and have very watery diarreah and become lethargic. It is important to keep an eye on your pup and make sure he gets plenty of fresh water. Too much salt water can cause organ damage.

Some marine mammals will drink seawater too, seals and sealions can do it. The key is a kidney component called a Loop of Henle, a longer one can get rid of excess salt and reclaim water that would otherwise be passed as urine.
Certain birds can do it too. Albatrosses and Fulmars are two such species. They have a way of separating the salt out from their blood, excreting it from their nostrils.
Even domestic housecats can safely hydrate themselves with it, under specific circumstances though.
