Transplanting grey dogwood in July?

I'm tempted to buy some grey dogwood cultivars at a local nursery and plant them this weekend. However, I am reluctant because it's kind of late in the season, plus I know they'll be quite rootbound and I'll have to slice the roots.

On the other hand, grey dogwood is supposed to be so tough, and I really want to fill some holes in my borders/hedges. I am in the Chicago area. Would I be much wiser to wait until fall?

Anyone have any advice to offer on this point?
