Slughorn was reluctant to work at Hogwarts; Harry helped Dumbledore convince Slughorn that it was in his (Slughorn's) best interest to do so - as Dumbledore had evidently foreseen. Apparently the main reason Dumbledore wanted Slughorn in Hogwarts is because Slughorn had some important information (which he really preferred to keep secret), which Harry and Dumbledore needed to defeat Lord Voldemort.

Harry was going through his trunk and took out a box of chocolate cauldrons that Romilda Vane had given him. It was Ron's 17th birthday and he had been opening gifts. He thought the chocolate cauldrons were a gift and ate them. Unfortunately, they were full of an aged love potion and Ron fell under the enchantment.
