Its hard to know what causes one dog to dislike another. Did you see what precipitated the first and second attacks? Was it a fight over a toy or food item? Were they all running together and the play got too rough? Getting your pup neutered was the best thing to do. Hopefully, there won't be an issue again. If you hear him growl at your mom's dog---say in a stern voice "Cut it Out!!" Let him know that growling will not be tolerated. Definitely try to walk your dogs before taking them over to your mom's house. And supervise them while they are running around.
I wish there was more to say that could help. You should work with the training exercises to be sure you are the alpha and all 3 of your dogs will listen to you. Good Luck.
