As of today, I found the item at
54.63
I was looking into buying the Fei Fei treat and while searching for the Master leatherwork to buy the "Silken Thread" I stumbled with a mount on the ground.
This is just outside the inn on the back.

I had a bit of trouble figuring this one out, as it was nothing like the (mind you, outdated) comments here told me. Here's what you have to do:
1) Go to the Leatherworking Trainer, Brumman, at 54,63 and buy a Silken Thread from him.
2) Next, go to around 56,62, where you'll find both Fei Fei and Warrant Officer Tracy Proudwell. The dog should have a blue question mark over it's head. Talk to the Warrant Officer and exchange your Silken Thread for a [item=31799].
3) Once you have the said item, you should be able to complete a quest to Fei Fei, after which the dog would start skittering around different places and digging the ground but will be 'unsatisfied with this hiding spot' for a couple of times, before eventually leading you to a place where he'll bury the treat, making the object Fei Fei's Cache (so, a pile of dirt) appear and you'll be able to dig up the beads.
4) Once you have the [item=31795], just return to Assistant Klatu inside the inn and ta-da -- quest complete!
I hope this helps.

Everyone who keeps saying you don't need to feed the treat is half wrong and half right. If someone has recently done the quest the mound will be there, if no one has done it recently the mound will not be there and you will spend 10 min running around searching. If you don't see a mound behind the inn with sparkles than you have to feed the treat.

What to do

StorylineHellfire Peninsula, step 48 of 103

Rewards2,050 XP

Description

Anchorite Barada plans to exorcise the corruption from Colonel Jules, and will require an assistant for the task. Such an assistant must be prepared... I am ashamed to admit that my prayer beads were lost in Honor Hold's courtyard. I believe the dog Fei Fei stole them and buried them, but I do not know where. If you speak with his master, Warrant Officer Tracy Proudwell, perhaps she will know where Fei Fei hides his stolen treasures.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Fel SpiritsHellfire Peninsula · Level 10-30
Colonel Jules was cursed in a battle near the Gor'gaz Outpost, a haunt for Shattered Hand fel orcs. My master, Barada, works feverishly to cure the poor human, but he needs help. The Colonel's tormented spirit seeks peace, and his path to peace is, I fear, a path of vengeance.
