Aggressive English Bulldog

Question
My male English bulldog is almost a year old.  We just had him fixed last month because we thought that would calm his aggression towards my female dogs, however we were wrong. For the last 4 months he just tears into my female dogs. Both are 5, one is a lab and the other a rottweiler. They have all drawn blood and even myself has been bitten trying to break them up. I have to keep them seperated. Is he just trying to take up for himself or is he just trying to dominate everybody. Will this ever stop and is there something I can do to fix this, he is such a good dog?

Answer
This is unacceptable behavior regardless of whether he's neutered or not. You should really try to find a behaviorist in your area to work with the dog. I'm at a loss as I've only seen similar behavior in females toward other females. This is very dominant behavior and if you don't find someone to help you correct it, you'll be faced with either getting rid of him or the two older dogs.  If you end up placing him, make sure he will be the only dog in the household.

I wish I had more optomistic advice.
