I would follow up with them a little more--check to see if their puppies are AKC registered, and don't be afraid to ask them about the conditions you saw when you visited them (i. e. the puppies in pens with their own waste). Maybe they have a logical explanation. Also, the owner says that you can call her 24 hours a day with questions about puppy emergencies (such as hypoglycemia), so it sounds like they do care about the health of their puppies after they are sold. My main concern is that the parents (particularly the mother) are off-site. I would ask them why.

Not having the mom onsite with the puppies not only is bad if the puppies are under 12 weeks but also would make the seller a broker and brokers get there puppies from bybs and puppymills.
