No it didn't. It is reinforcing its pre-existing rule of no PETS. That's not a new thing. They've never welcomed pets. But they'd been tolerating it, and "looking the other way" and refusing to do anything about it until recently.
Service animals are still welcome, as long as they are actively performing their duty as service animals. That means "four on the floor" - not in carriages or strollers or the arms of a person. It means on a short leash, not a retractable leash. It means the animal is heeling, not sniffing at products on the bottom shelf or at people.
