No, that is not true. Some people think there is some sort of genetic defect caused because of the size. These animals have a normal life span when taken care of properly.
The average lifespan for a domesticated rabbit is 8 - 10 years. Some rabbits live even longer, like 12 or 13 years. Dwarf breeds tend to live longer than giant breeds.
