Some headache types do affect certain populations more. Migraine more often affects women. Cluster Headache is most common in men. It would help if you could be more specific in your question - what type of headache? Which population?
In what! (grrr i hate it when people post stupid questions like this....)

Cluster headache is not considered deadly, however its nickname is "suicide headache" and patients are more likely than non cluster patients to try or complete suicide. For appropriate diagnosis, treatment and information on Migraine and headache disorders, please seek the help of a board certified Migraine and headache specialist.

A headache felt throughout the scalp is usually a tension headache. However, you should never try to diagnose yourself. For a diagnosis, a doctor needs to be consulted. Preferably a headache specialist who is best able to diagnose, treat and manage headache disorders.
It really depends on the puppy.
