Truly the ultimate house pet. She can communicate normally so you always know what she wants, she's affectionate and nonaggressive by nature, she's really fluffy and cute, and she even comes with her own leash, food dish, and toy. To top it all off, you can have sex with her. Best monster girl of all time.

And on top of that, she isn't (supposed to be) supernaturally attractive, she's just so cute and sexy and approachable that it's easy to end up having sex with her.
Should I ask why the name "Kobold," was given to a canine?
Let's see, original kobolds in folklore were spirits (usually found in mines) that look like ugly pixies (and not too dissimilar from how goblins are depicted in D&D, but smaller). Then D&D showed up.
In 0E D&D they were described as a type of goblinoid.
In 1E AD&D they have hides, and they look vaguely doglike or ratlike in the included picture.
Not sure about 1E Basic D&D as whole, but the kobolds were explicitly described as "doglike humanoids" in the Rules Cyclopedia (which can be considered as a compliation of all the 1E Basic boxsets).
Their description in 2e AD&D varies. They were described to have scales and to be both doglike and reptilian-like, but they were also said to have "dog-like yapping" (so, not too different from a chihuahua.) They were depicted variously in artwork, from goblinlike to lizardlike to doglike.
Example. Note that they look like small doglike humanoids with scales and other reptilian features.
In 3e (and 3.5) they became fully reptilian and looked like scrawny miniature humanoid dragons. They still yip like a Chihuahua though, IIRC.
The kobolds remained reptilian through 3.PF, 4e, and 5e.
Most Japanese works of fiction (e.g. Record of Lodoss War, Overlord) seem to draw inspiration from 1e AD&D and 2e AD&D (if they draw any from D&D), so that explains the dog-like look.
