Here's another reason:
Both of those make more sense than saying a bunch of (probably underweight) dogs jumped on a log too many times and they had zero other ways to get up
Maybe they're in earthquake territory? Even rare minor ground tremor would probably be enough to finish destroying an already structurally-compromised building. Or, it's a wet city and the building is no longer watertight, as the structure gets soaked it will get weaker and eventually the tree will collapse into the building anyway, probably taking the external walls down on top of it.
