"Shield" is not an ability that creatures have and shield counters are not keyword counters. If a creature with a shield counter loses its abilities, the shield counter will still protect it as normal.

4/29/2022·wotc

A creature with a shield counter on it may still be destroyed by state-based actions if it has damage marked on it equal to its toughness or has been dealt unpreventable damage by a source with deathtouch.

4/29/2022·wotc

If a permanent that would be dealt damage has more than one shield counter on it, that damage is prevented and only one shield counter is removed.
