Slug

Many of you may know Slug, Rudy Rucker Jr’s big, loyal, lovable dog who goes everywhere with him. You may have seen him at Cyclecide events or as a biofeedback participant in a SEEMEN show. Well Slug is not doing so well. Recently his spleen became so swollen it had to be removed. So to help raise funds for his medical expenses, they’re having a benefit for him this Sunday, July 10th at Atlas Cafe in San Francisco starting at 5:00pm.

Slug is a strong, brave four year old dog. Everyone wants that dog, Slug, around another four or forty years!! Come on by and chip in a few bucks!

We have incurred thousands in medical expenses and could possibly face more. Every dime helps! We want to be poised to throw more money at the SPCA if needed.

UPDATE 2: Donations to the Slug recovery fund can be made through SEEMEN’s PayPal page. Questions? Contact Kal.

Unfortunately, Slug didn’t make it. He put up a good fight, died happy with loved ones on Ocean Beach. Kal & Rudy still have lots of vet bills to pay and appreciate anything anyone can do.RIP Slug. You were the nicest, biggest dog I ever knew.
