It does not work
Counterspell and Dispel Magic work only on spells, but Wild Shape is not a spell.
Dispel Magic:
Choose one creature, object, or magical effect within range. Any spell of 3rd level or lower on the target ends.

This is correct but could be made better by adding supporting evidence that wild shape is more a spell. Preemptive +1.
