It is not protocol to put that information in your resume but it is a question I often ask when I interview potential new employees. Be sure you have a good answer prepared. Be straight forward but make sure it is justified. For instance:
Bad answer: "My old boss hated me and he was hard on me"
Good answer: " I felt I was not given the opportunities for growth that I was hoping for with my former employer"
Remember, your resume just needs to get you in the door, its your interview that will get you the job.

Usually on the resume, you don't have to put why you left your last job. If you are asked, say something about looking for new opportunities, not liking the environment, something that doesn't trash the people you worked with or your former boss.

Tell the truth!
I wouldn't think badly of a job applicant who said they were bored & left their last job in order to have time to look for a new one - provided they haven't been out of work for more than 3 months.
If it's longer, get a job through a temping agency, then give temping as the reason.
