Is there any way to fix this behavior?
well you dont know what she was doing that got the dog to feel threatened by her. may be nothing or maybe she was grabbing and pulling things that set him off. maybe have a chat with her about how and when he first started doing it, see if you can spot any actions on her part to explain it.
that said

Dad instinct kicked in and I jumped up grabbed him by the collar and slapped the frick out of him then threw him outside.
this is what you do, beat his arse until it stops being aggressive so he has no inkling to be aggressive any more

The girls have been kinda skittish of him lately because he’s a puppy and likes to jump and run with them (he’s the same size as them now). But I was proud of her today for wanting to try to love on him.
I was questionable at first when she said he growled at her which is why I made her do it again with me watching. And she did nothing but pet the dog and he snapped.
My theory that I told my wife earlier is that he thinks we’re his owners and the kids are other pets he has to deal with.

There are some serious psychopaths on this board. Beating an aggressive dog does not alter their behavior in a positive way.

Doesn't matter what she may have done. Dog needs to be put down.
I went through this with a German Shepherd. One of the saddest days of my life- but can't own a dog that growls at my child.

That is the answer. You need to train the kid as well to assume her position in the pack and her position is over him. But I'd put him in all kinds of bad situations with the kid just daring him to do anything that looked wrong just so I could reinforce it again. Because you've got to make sure that he's getting the picture that the kid is above him in the pack and you 100% will back her every time.
