Cold water can sap the heat from a human fairly quickly, even if it is fairly warm. Water that is below the normal body temperature will eventually cause a person to die of hypothermia. How far below that temperature will determine how long it takes for this to happen. While warm water may take many hours, even days, very cold water such as the North Atlantic would be measured in minutes.

What is wrong if your 3-year-old dog that throws up after drinking ANY water including ice cubes but when you feed her with no water she's fine?

You should never give your dog icy cold water. It can be cool, but not cold and I give my dog tepid water (same as body temp.) Dogs will often vomit if they don't like their diet or if they drink water too quickly or they are hot and drink icy cold water. Ice water isn't even good for humans if they are too hot.
