He's just a good ol' boy, never meaning no harm...so what kind of black-hearted soul would steal Bo Duke's puppies?

That's what John Schneider wants to know. The actor, of Dukes of Hazzard and Smallville fame, is making a public plea for the safe return of a pair of purloined pooches. The 10-week-old canines were in a kennel in the back of his SUV, which was jacked from a Los Angeles mall last Saturday. The Escalade was later recovered; Marley (a Yorkie-poo) and Paisley (a Yorkie) weren't.

"Folks, listen. I understand what's going on in the economy," Schneider said in a plea on L.A.'s Valentine in the Morning radio show today. "But please, do the right thing and get those puppies back in the Christmas home they belong in. I'd just like to have our puppies back for Christmas."

Kids. Puppies. Christmas. Not even the Grinch—or Boss Hogg—could resist that.
