Turquoise Morton, 38, was charged Tuesday with abandoning a domestic animal and animal cruelty.
The dog was found in a trash bag in a dumpster at the Belmont Apartments on White Horse Pike back in March.
It was severely malnourished and suffering from multiple injuries.
The Bichon-Poodle mix has since been adopted after undergoing several surgeries.
Morton is being held at the Camden County Correctional Facility pending a court appearance.
