Except that dwarves are, in traditional fantasy, very honorable and courageous, whereas kobolds are duplicitous and craven. And rather than being allies because they share 'interests', they'd be rivals because they're competing for the same resources. Indeed, I have no doubt that the average dwarf hates kobolds far more than he hates elves, especially because kobolds tend to precipitate the arrival of a dragon, which a dwarf DEFINITELY doesn't want to deal with.
