In various fantasy settings, wood elves often have a complex relationship with dwarves, characterized by mutual distrust and cultural differences. While wood elves tend to be more connected to nature and often view dwarves as industrial and materialistic, they may engage in trade or cooperate against common threats. In some narratives, wood elves might capture or confront dwarves over territorial disputes or resource conflicts, but they also recognize the dwarves' skills and craftsmanship. Ultimately, their interactions can range from hostile to amicable, depending on the context of the story.
the dwarves were captured by thorn and the wood elves long enough for bilbo to help them escape
Bilbo kept from being captured by the Wood Elves in Mirkwood by using The Ring to turn himself invisible. He slipped in after the company of Elves that had captured the other members of The Company (namely, the twelve dwarves) as the Elves were escorting the dwarves into the Elven fortress.
They escape in barrels sent downriver to be filled.
The dwarves and the elves dont get along.

Dwarves and elves can be found in Norse mythology.
As dwarves and elves are fictional and fantasy creatures there is no comparison.
He doesn't. Instead, he puts on his Ring and sneaks unseen with the captive dwarves in with them.
They took them to the halls of the Elven King in his hall, a large cave at the edge of Mirkwood. The wood elves of Mirkwood, in the Hobbit, took the thirteen dwarves to their king's halls, where they were locked in by cellars and a magic gate.
The elves were astonished because they did not know the dwarves were in the barrels that they threw.
Elves are more humorous and playful, and enjoy singing and making jokes. Dwarves are more serious and aren't as playful as the elves. Dwarves find elves immature and irritating.
In The Hobbit, they are simply identified as "Wood Elves". Later, they were further identified as being Silvan Elves led by the Sindar, Thranduil (who is the father of Legolas).
