Corrected entry: Before Dumbledore takes Harry by side-along apparition to see Slughorn, he tells Harry to hold his left arm because his right hand is all shriveled up. When they apparate away from Slughorn's house to the Burrow, Harry grabs Dumbledore's right (i.e. the wrong) arm.

Correction: First off, there is no "wrong" arm. Dumbledore still has use of his right arm/hand despite the poison, as seen on a few occasions, including when Harry takes hold of Dumbledore's right forearm as they Apparate from the Astronomy Tower to the cave's location and also when Dumbledore holds his wand with his right hand within the cave. Secondly, both when going to and leaving Budleigh Babberton, Harry takes hold of Dumbledore's left forearm for the Side-Along Apparition.
