Does the partial version of the Cross Correlation Function exist? If so, how can it be computed? I have been trying to look for the analogous version of the PACF for cross correlation, but there seems to be no such thing... why is this? Is it not possible to extrapolate the algorithm used to calculate the PACF to two time series? 
From my understanding, the CCF is merely the correlation between the lags and leads of two time series, as it is defined here: Wikipedia page about cross correlation
Am I missing something about the CCF? Because its computation is very simmilar to how the ACF is constructed... so the "PCCF" should be constructed simmilarly to the PACF? Perhaps re-adapting this algorithm so that the "Zs" are the lagged X&Y variables for each kth lag we wish to correlate?
Also, if anyone could provide some R code to compute the aforementioned "PCCF", it would be much appreciated... I found a "PCCF" function in Matlab, but I am uncertain if it is correct: Matlab CCF function
 A: So, after some research on the topic... I came to realise that if you execute the following code:
pacf(ts(cbind(dx,dy)),lag.max=10)

You get the partial cross correlations between x & y. 
So I researched a little, and found this link where Simone Giannerini creates a corrected version of the multivariate pacf. Here is the code:
pacf.mts <- function(x,lag.max){

Which follows the recursive algorithm described in pp. 402-414 in Wei (2005) Time Series Analysis, and actually yields the same output as the first line of code I wrote above (probably the pacf function was corrected on CRAN after he posted this new function)
I think this is what I am looking for, but why isn't it called partial cross correlation, if that's what it (seems) to be?
WARNING: 
I realised that doing:
pacf(cbind(dx,dy))

Yields highly undesirable results (do not understand what actually happens here, but it is certainly wrong... probably has something to do with the input class not being a ts?), after getting this output:
