I have a pug and he is not litter box trained, but "cage-trained". We did pretty much the same thing Sandysand said, we made the kitchen his "special room". We put newspaper in the bottom of the cage and then 15 minutes after he ate we would put him in the cage and wait for him to go, then when he does take him out and treat and praise him. this worked well b/c he hated being in the cage, so he caught on fast: "when I pee in here, they let me out".
i think the cage works better than the litter box, but not if you plan to cage them when you leave, like a lot of people do.
