I just watched the Mannequins Part 2 video here http://www.pixologic.com/zclassroom/homeroom/lesson/zspheres/
and what looked simple enough does not have the same results shown in the video when I do the same.
Does anyone know why it’s generating a turd and not a simple dog mesh?
You’re remeshing the zspheres rather than the preview mesh. But for the best way to get a sculptable version that looks the same see here:

Thanks very much! Simple as pressing “A” then remesh.
ZBrush 4R3 ??? You’re really missing out on a lot of cool new features by not upgrading to ZBrush 4R4 P2. Is there any particular reason that you don’t want to upgrade?
Haha It’s been a while since I’ve used zbrush at work and just noticed it hasn’t been updated. Just had our IT guy upgrade it for me, thanks for pointing that out!
No problem! You’re gonna love 4R4 P2. 
I should mention that upgrading to 4R4 will be done the usual way, but to ugrade to 4R4 P2 from 4R4, see this thread, post #1.
