While the novelization describes Hoggle as a Gnome, Jareth describes Hoggle as a Dwarf just after Sarah falls into the Oubliette. Jareth states, "The Dwarf will lead her back to the beginning. She'll give up once she realizes she has to start all over". It can be assumed, as Hoggle is the only one in the Oubliette with Sarah, and he specifically states to Jareth shortly thereafter, "I was taking her back to the beginning", that Jareth was referring to Hoggle as the Dwarf. It is also possible, given the age of the movie, Jareth was simply referring to Hoggle's height versus his race. Hoggle does not have the traditional features of a fantasy Dwarf. He does however have commonly accepted features of Gnomes, such being even smaller in stature to the commonly accepted Dwarf height and a round nose.
