sign of submissive or dominant ?
I have a cross breed between Rottweiler, Golden Retriever and Labrador puppy. She's 7 months old and i realize i made the big mistake of doting her last 3 days since i just got her making her thinking she's the boss. And i was eager to show her she's not, its been 3 days since I do everything i learn from a friend of my mine who has experience in dogs.But lately, when i look at her, she looks away but her ears were perch up like she's the alpha.And sometimes when I let her roam free of my yard because i live in rural area and there's no reason why i should leash her when i'm home, during this time she's all alpha but when I put a leash on her when i take her to the park, she's all submissive.
So in actuality, is she getting submissive or still dominant or she getting to be submissive?

It's been three days and you've made some important progress. She's stil
It's a bit too soon though to be diagnosing her as 'still dominant'.
Give it a bit more time to for you both to figure yourselves out. If there are situations where she is taking charge and being disobedient, those are the areas you'll need to work on.
If she is not behaving when she is off leash in your yard, you could start by not letting her simply run free in your backyard, but by beginning and end these 'run free' times with some off leash obedience training. You don't want her to think she is off the hook just cause she is off the leash.
