My ex-wife filed for a change of venue to the county next to mine where she now lives with my children. She has primary physical custody. It isn't a long distance to drive but I think the motivation is judge shopping as she has lost the last couple of motions she filed in the county where we divorced and where I still live. Can I prevent this from happening?

I don't think she has a valid reason for change of venue, the travel is not extensive and you are still in the first jurisdiction, I don't think she'll win this motion either.
