Is It Dangerous If I Was Bitten By My Unvaccinated Dog, Started Anti-rabies Shots, And The Dog Died 21 Days Later, Possibly From Parvo?

Hello! Doc, I just wanted to consult someone.. if possible. because I m worried. I hope you can help me. I was able to bite our own dog, his name is SMALL, he is 4-5 months old. He died this afternoon .. He didn t have any vaccine injected into him. After I was bitten on March 6, I injected on March 8 (anti rabies), I completed the three anti rabies vaccines and then I will return to May 6 for the last injection. Isn t that bad? Because he died? Isn t that bad for me? 21 days before he died. I don t know what killed him but when I searched for all the symptoms of parvo, he and our neighbors here died of their dog in parvo.
