There's a difference between the lack of a scarcely-mentioned animal and the lack of half of a sentient species, especially when said half was shown to be just as active in the world as the other half in the previous game.
I think there was even one quest in DA2 that appeared if Nathaniel was dead where you had to save two sons of a dwarf in Hightown who had wandered down into the deep roads. His wife appeared, and was an elf. When this was the only married dwarf we saw, this carried the incorrect implication that dwarven women didn't even exist, as if they were wiped from the face of Thedas by the same act of the maker that made Qunari look tougher, elves uglier, and darkspawn weaker.
So clearly, the dwarven women were yet another casualty of DA2's rushed production schedule. Since it seems like they're putting more time in for DA3, though, they should return (and bring the Kossith women with them, too, please?). So they're not dead, just taking a vacation. Or they all died right next to the Urn of Sacred Ashes.
