The roots of the red twig dogwood are fibrous, which makes transplanting relatively easy and can help stabilize banks. It will be best to wait until this fall to move your shrub, as many plants are under stress now due to the heat and dry conditions. The shrub is small enough to transplant now, if it was in more of an emergency situation, such as moving it out of the way of construction. Water the shrub thoroughly a couple days before moving it, should you decide to relocate it soon.
