I think, since Smaug had probably worked with Sauron before, would have been glad too. Why not, Sauron could just say, "Smaug my old friend, if you do this you can have some of my mithril, or hey go get our old friend Durin's Bane, I can't, I don't have a body." Anyway, I think Smaug would have happily worked with (not for) Sauron.
