But dogs are not humanoids. There's completely different assumptions of musculature at work there. Notice that most small dogs are STOUT dogs. That and many small-breed dogs are probably closer to the results of dwarfism in humans. A friend of mine had a few small dogs and they were very prone to health issues and joint problems earlier in life because of the breeding required to get them that small.
Dwarves I can see, as they're described as generally shorter than humans but broad and bulky.
The slender and tiny halflings we see depicted, however, just kind of creep me out in a funny sort of way. If they were compact and almost as broad as they are tall, well, they wouldn't be as cute but I could maybe see one with a tiny halberd.
But then they'd be itty bitty dwarves.
