I would hope that since it happened in more than one pup, the woman wises up and decides not to breed again.

I couldn't find that term in reference to the head of the puppy? I know I sure do hope so as well. I have no idea about the others, but even if one puppy had that, the parents should be spayed/neutered. Not sure if that is a male/or female or both hereditary issue.
