If his problem is aggression due to testosterone, then after neutering it can take up to 6 weeks for the testosterone levels to go down. If it has not been at least that long since his neuter then you should give him more time. When you do introduce dogs, you need to do so in a neutral territory and then take both dogs from that neutral area to your house. If that does not work to lessen the aggression then I suggest you consult with a professional, in-home dog trainer in your area to help you work this through. I like Bark Busters and they have a trainer in your area. Don't quote me on this but I think they do a free evaluation. ( https://www.barkbusters.com/dog-training-phoenix-westvalley )
