Most of the books in Steven Brust's Dragaera series, esp. the Taltos books are short. Arguably SF though as well, but read as fantasy and the SF backstory is well worked in and hidden. There aren't that many dragons (unless one counts the elves who are dragons).
Early Michael Moorcock tended toward short and the Elric series had dragons occasionally.
The Hobbit if you haven't read it. (not very gritty though, quite the opposite).
