Good work!! I'd continue that on a daily basis if necessary and let him know you're not intimidated by his growling/barking and if you can remain cool, calm and collected during this and pass those feelings and energy on to Charlie, he may stop this type of behavior. Like the old saying, "It takes two...". I'd ignore him and continue like he wasn't there. Charlie will look to you for guidance, so to speak, and your reactions to the situation will either rub off on Charlie or aggravate it-depending on your reaction. I didn't use to go for that line of reasoning but have applied it myself and it works rather nicely.
