Answer
Natalie,

I know you will not like my answer, but it not worth the risk of having a dog, especially a bulldog, in your home that bites.  And again, especially since you have children in your home.

Bulldogs have very strong jaws.  It can be very dangerous to have a bulldog that bites.  And behavior like this usually gets worse and not better.

Unless you find someone that could work with him, and not have a risk of children getting bit, you may have to put him down.

I hate to give you this news, but I do not want you, your husband or children, or guests to be hurt.
