Gandalf rescues them from the trolls. He does so by throwing his voice and getting them to argue with each other. They got so caught up in their fight that they forgot the time and the sun turned them to stone.

I think Gandalf came to Bilbo to either get a 14 man. (Another reply) Gandalf was helping the dwarves, and he believed that Bilbo could help. However, his help to the dwarves was secondary to his main mission: to get information about Sauron. Sauron is mentioned in the Hobbit, as the Necromancer; in the Lord of the Rings, Gandalf confirms that the "Necromancer" was no other than the old enemy, Sauron.
Bilbo is the burglar of the group, and it is his job to go and investigate the scene.In regards to the central themes: heroism, wisdom and nobility we can add the complexities of a noble thief: is this an oxymoron? And in terms of heroes it is ironic that the dwarves were sacked after rather timidly relegating the dirty-work to Bilbo. Do not expect this to change. As far as character-development goes, Bilbo is the central focus. He is growing into Gandalf's glowing pronouncement and the dwarves are‹for now, at least‹being themselves.
I think he rescues them numerous times, but the one that first comes to my mind is when he rescues them from the Trolls, by keeping them arguing until the sun rose up and turned them all to stone.
In "The Hobbit," Gandalf rescues Bilbo and the dwarves from the goblins in the Misty Mountains by using his magical abilities to create a blinding light that allows them to escape. Later, when they are captured by the Wargs and surrounded by flames, Gandalf calls upon the eagles, who swoop down to save them from danger. His quick thinking and connections in the natural world prove crucial in ensuring their survival.

All thirteen of the dwarves, followed by a chuckling Gandalf.
If Gandalf and the dwarves did not show up to rescue him, Bilbo Baggins had a plan to make his way through the tunnels to locate them. However, he is saved from that undertaking when he hears the dwarves and Gandalf talking.
No. Gandalf leaves the dwarves several times in the book, always returning, seemingly, just in time to save the dwarves from some terrible danger.

Gandalf presents the dwarves in a staggered fashion while telling a story to keep Beorn's interest so he would not send them away.Gandalf wanted to keep Beorn fascinated in his story so he wouldn't notice the large number of dwarves Gandalf brought.

Bilbo stays invisible for weeks listening to conversations of the Wood-Elves. The king's first man<-? and a guard test some wine in the basement of the Wood-Elf compound. They fall asleep and Bilbo steals the guard's keys. Bilbo unlocks the cells of the dwarves and he puts them in empty tubs that the Wood-Elves were about to throw out through their river disposal system, (I can't quite remember what it was called), and the elves who throw out the tubs threw out the dwarves without even looking in them. Bilbo had one problem though, he wasn't in a tub, so he had to grab on to a barrel and float into the lake where the dwarves and Bilbo are accepted and fed and housed.
