Personality>> Cortney, once you actually manage to get her to talk, is a very bubbly teenager who is full of life. However, what everyone sees; is a timid, quiet girl who seems to be lost in her own thoughts. When she's at church though, she's the lead soloist for the church choir, so all shyness vanishes as soon as the music starts.

It’s the way I’m feeling I just can’t deny

Full History>>Cortney is the eldest daughter of Marieke and Rick Smit. She was however, only older than Myriam, her identical twin sister, by five minutes.
The Smit family, even though originally from the Netherlands, brought their girls up in Spain. The girls grew up happy and healthy in a strong family. Their parents both trained Sporthorses on the farm where they lived, so it was easy to say that the twins could ride as soon as they could walk. Cortney and Myriam both went to Pony Club every weekend and while they weren't competing for Club, they were competing for themselves.
Everything was great, until two days before their twelfth birthday. Corntney got food poisoning, so she had to remain home with the housekeper while her parents took Myriam to a show. They took both of the girls horses as the twins never competed against each other so Myriam could compete in her sister's classes as long as they didn't clash with her own and the show people said it was alright.
The show went really well, Myriam got champion in her own classes and reserve for the one class she was able to do for her sister. The drive home though, wasn't so well. As they packed the ponies up, the weather began to change and the wind picked up. Hoping that it would pass as quickly as it came, they started home.
Myriam and the ponies never made it home. The wind brought a tree down that landed on the vehicle, cutting it in half, sending the back half and horse trailer down a cliff... there were no survivors. Packing up their things, the Smit family left Spain and headed over to the States where Marieke's family lived.
Cortney, other than the fact she wanted no more to do with horses, didn't seem to be effected by the events that had transpired. The church that the family attended became like a second home to Cortney, and after joining the choir, she became a lead soloist - which gave her something else to throw her all into. It was when her grades began to slip and church seemed to become her everything - not that this is a bad thing - that her parents felt that the best thing to do was to send her to a boarding school. After looking around, they enrolled her into Blue Ridge, hoping that the close proximity of the horses would awaken her passion for life.
We found love in a hopeless place
Pet Name>> Isa
Age>> Two Months
Species>> Canine
Breed>> Teacup Yorkie/Maltese
Registry>> N/A
Personality>> Just like the meaning of her name, Isa is strong-willed. She will do things, but only on her terms - this is something that Cortney is quickly nipping in the bud, as she knows that it will only lead to trouble as the puppy gets older.
History>> Cortney has no idea where Isa originally came from, all she knows is that she was called to the office one Saturday morning and a box was waiting for her. Opening the box, she found the tiny puppy nestled inside.
