Human Factors; Procedure
Started flight early; loaded the freight in Pit 6 and did not notice any Dangerous Goods markings. Was cautious about dry ice due to animal to be loaded in Pit 5. Finished loading and called Load Planner for oxygen check. He brought to my attention the Dangerous Goods in Pit 6. Since I didn't notice any Dangerous Goods signs on freight I moved the freight to Pit 4 on the load plan. I was never contacted by the [Operations] Dangerous Goods Specialist. I ran out of time to move the freight.
Air carrier ground personnel reported moving Dangerous Goods to a cargo pit that did not contain live animal.
