"We are complete novices when it comes to staffs and their ailments.

1) What is L2-GHA & HC?

2) Is it necessary for the pups to be clear and are these and PHPV passed to the puppies from the mother or the father? 

3) Are these genetic diseases and are they dangerous to the dogs? 

4) Sorry to sound so dumb about this but we have found a gorgeous litter of pups where the parents' test results won't be known until after the pups have left home.  So we'll be buying a pup without knowing if it's clear.  Does this matter?"

If anyone can answer these questions please I would be grateful.

My personal advice would be don't buy a puppy from parents that have unknown health status.

If they do a search of breeders under Spanish Water Dogs and the Spanaffy kennel I'm sure that Jo would help too.

I wouldn't buy without knowing the results either!
