That's different. They lived so close it would be kinda hard. But if they had a strong alliance why didn't the King Under the Mountain have some of the Dale-men go to help?

The men and dwarves fought side by side in the North.

But this isn't about that is it? It's about Pellenor Fields (or that 'battle in Gondor' that guy refers to) and dwarves were NOT there.

They weren't there, but I think they were holding off some of Sauron's forces up north so the soldiers at the Pelennor wouldn't be out numbered or something.

Well, they were anyway. I think they were attacked by Sauron's forces too. But it did helped Gondor, I guess, because they won.

They were also REALLY far away and it isn't as if the two countries had messengers going back and forth so that they each knew exactly what was happening at all times in the other place.

Gimli arrived at the Battle of the Pelennor Field with Aragorn, having ridden with him in the Grey Company.

The dwarves would have been of great help -- somehow I think they would have been able to do something about the technology that dug those trenches and fire pits, and built those seige towers. And had the armies entered Minas Tirith, their presence in the city might have been decisive, as they were so familiar with fighting in such close quarters because of the Goblin and Dwarf wars.

Yes, I said, 'As a whole'. But OT: I dont think the Woses ever did, did they?
