Neither pasta nor coconut is detrimental for your puppy, however you should not use these as your' puppy's regular food. Your puppy needs a complete puppy food for large dogs. If you feed coconut, it should be shredded, and not in pieces as it could cause an intestinal blockage. And if you feed pasta, make sure there is no onion in the pasta, and just add it to his normal food as a treat.
