Negative was misfiled with photographs 1429_6747 and 1429_6748, which are photos of the pilot C. C. Moseby.
Two men in white lab coats, one of them presumably Dr. Alexander (Alex) Moxley, stand over an operating table with a sedated dog on its back, legs restrained by ropes. Surgical instruments on a tray, towels, and a container of ether are also visible. Moxley opened a veterinary hospital at 940 N. Highland Avenue, and it is likely this photograph was taken there.
Handwritten on negative: Dr. Moxley's dog hospital.
